Well read is a strong word for what I've done with this book... This is a spin-off from the popular Wombat Stew - in which a dingo attempts to make a stew from a wombat. Given Wombat Stew was first published in 1984, and this cookbook was first published in 1989 I was amazed to see it in a bookshop today = so I just had to have a flick through. This book fulfilled half of my expectations of it: It is full of recipes that are easy for kids to make with minimal adult involvement. The half unfulfilled is the Australian element. The original book nominally features Australian animals highlighting their favourite foods, which are all native Australian foods. It was a vain hope that this cookbook would follow this through, as the Australian native foods movement was in its infancy when this book was published. Even so this book seems to have gone down the Outback Steakhouse (A US restaurant chain with an 'Australian' theme) route of simply naming recipes with vaguely Australian names, and thus they must be Australian foods. A comparison: Wombat Stew Cookbook: Echidna avocado dip (what exactly do Echidnas have to do with an avocado dip?) Outback Steakhouse: Alice Springs Chicken (Alice Springs is certainly not famous for its chicken, camel maybe, but not chicken) - it's served with a Monterey Jack cheese (a cheese not commonly eaten or available in Australia), and served with Aussie Fried (well if they were really Aussie they would be chips!) I think Roald Dahl's Roald Dahl's Revolting Recipes would certainly give this book a run for it's money.

** spoiler alert ** I read this a long time ago. I thought it was very good, as all books in this series are. Towards the end of this series, particularly book five and on I felt like there was a lot more aggression in the characters, like they were always angry, and the happy, fun loving characters from the first four books were gone. I suppose that is genuine though, as anger is a part of any adolescence, not to mention one filled with the problems of Harry and his friends. This particular book was strange for me, the way it was written, separate from Hogwarts, the primary setting of the previous books, was so changed from the normal feel of these books. Them in hiding in the woods, running, feuding against each other at times, keeping secrets, it felt SO different. The characters are growing up, and trying desperately to reconcile the battle between their two top priorities, save the wizarding world, and friendship. Sometimes these two priorities are at odds with each other, and that leads to the splitting off of paths. But luckily they almost always forgive, and reunite. I actually didn’t get the whole Harry-Ginny story line and wish that had gone a different direction. For Ginny to be such a shy, weird, mostly unimportant character in the first books, who happens to have a crush on her older brother’s friend, and then for it to turn into this huge romance, and eventually marriage was not that realistic for me. Although, this is how many fans predicted and wanted it to be, in fact most fanfiction Harry pairings are about the two. I guess I warmed to Ginny’s character after a while, seeing how brave she was, and how witty and involved she became in situations like the corridor of mysteries, but it felt like she was two different characters, the one I knew in the first four books, and then a totally different character in the last three. This book was sad for character loss. I should really read the book again because I read it too fast the first time, racing to find out what happens in the end of this incredible adventure that has been inexplicably intertwined with my childhood. I grew up with these books and the final installment was the end of an era. It was like, I was reading them in middle school, and the last book came out right after I graduated. Everything changes; everything comes to an end, but in the case of this book mostly happily.
