How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World

This colorfully illustrated story follows a young girl as she travels around the world gathering the ingredients to make an apple pie. She goes to Italy for semolina wheat, to Sri Lanka for cinnamon, to England for a milk cow, and to Vermont for apples. The book ends with a recipe for apple pie. The story makes a nice introduction to concepts of trade, culture, and cooking.
