A not-so-ordinary cookbook for kids filled with unique recipes, whimsical illustrations, and stories about fascinating people and places in all corners of the globe.

When a solar eclipse frightens an entire village, a young Guatemalan girl named Maria searches for answers. The ensuing story goes great lengths in teaching children about bravery and the importance of nature. Join Maria as she races across the landscape of her mountain community and faces her fears head-on. This Tz'utujil Mayan folktale, suitable for children, originates from the lakeside village of San Juan la Laguna, Guatemala. --Amazon.com.
