Synopsis by Alice Day
The featured book of this episode is written by Marjorie Priceman, and read by Helen Mirren. When a pie maker cannot buy the ingredients needed to make an apple pie at the market, she takes an international journey to find them all. Chef Curtis Aikens shows LeVar Burton some basic cooking skills, and confides to Burton that he could not read for a long time. When he reached 26, he began to learn. Viewers will see the chemistry involved in making ice cream, and can listen as the kids on the review panel analyze What Food Is This? and Kids Around the World Cookbook.
