Amy's school needed to raise money to buy more computers. Amy knew that many of her classmates' families were from different countries all over the world. They had many special traditions, spoke many different languages and ate many different kinds of foods.
Amy had a good idea! She suggested that every student should bring their favorite dishes and hold a dinner party together. She knew the students would be glad to pay money in order to try foods from all over the world.
"That's a great idea," Amy's teacher said "let's have a big dinner"
Amy brought her favorite meal, chicken and noodles. Her friend Amina was from Brazil. Her family brought some beef and curry. Brian was from Japan and he brought sushi and fish. Kevin, from China brought a roast duck and some dumplings: Jessica was a vegetarian from Canada and she brought a meal with no meat. Her mother made some vegetable soup and fruit salad.
The dinner party was a great success. Everyone enjoyed seeing, smelling and tasting foods from so many different cultures.
