A wonderful Birthday Gift

My 11 year old nephew received this book for his birthday. In the last week he has cooked three times and loves entertaining his family and friends. The book is clearly written and helps children understand the use of measurements without being overwhelming or scarry. He loves it.

A sure recipe for fun!

This cookbook contains many good and simple recipes for young beginning cooks, using prepared ingredients - but also includes more involved from-scratch recipes for kids with cooking experience. The illustrations and photos are fun, and the book includes input and testing by real kids! They even include party ideas, and a few recipes for craft items. The gooey caramel rolls (made from refrigerated bread stick dough) are amazing!

Great cooking

A real delight for your childern in the kitchen. Easy to follow recipies and simple instructions lead to a very pleasant learning experience for your children.
