This is a Kosher cookbook with a twist. Not only is it for eight- to twelve-year-olds, but it also tells a story.

In this way, history and geography are taught along with how to cook The trip starts in New Orleans and continues to Baton Rouge, Louisiana; Natchez and Vicksburg, Mississippi; Little Rock, Arkansas; Memphis, Tennessee; and Hannibal, Missouri. After each stop, the chef on board the ship teaches a cooking class that features dishes with local themes.
