Chopsticks Are is filled with words that describe what chopsticks are and how they are used. They are works of art, represent tradition, and are given as gifts. They are used in many cultures throughout the world. Learn everything you ever wanted to know about chopsticks in this book!
I enjoyed how this book uses beautiful illustrations of food and different kinds of chopsticks to catch the reader's eye. Words are limited on each page. At the end, you will find a history of chopsticks, the rules for using them and a food index that names the different foods that are listed.
Many different ethnicities are featured in this book.
