Great Grub from the Meerkat Café: A Safari Cooking Adventure in Your Own Burrow

Meer over het boek

Reading 85.3 Flesch-Kincaid grade 4.5Meerkats and other animals, birds, and insects from southern Africa's Kalahari Desert star in this engagingly illustrated cooking safari for young people. Funny, "wildly" educational, and sometimes yucky facts about these creatures are accompanied by recipes such as Dung Beetle Pancakes (using either real dung beetles or breakfast sausages), Sun Spider Bundles (using either real sun spiders or tuna), and Spaghetti with Grasshopper Heads (using either real grasshoppers or peas). The author guides safaris in southern Africa, directs a meerkat wildlife center, and is a fellow of the Royal Geographical Society in London.
