A great collection of vegetarian recipes from all over the world - accompanied by mouth-watering pictures. I found the introduction with background information on a vegetarian diet very interesting - easy to understand also for younger readers.

I loved the beautiful, full-color presentation of this children's cookbook, and look forward to preparing some of the dishes therein. Unfortunately, vegan alternatives for the dairy and egg products are not mentioned in the text.
