The photos are great and I really support the purpose behind this book but found the organization very confusing. There are some base recipes in the front, and we riff off them for the rest of the book. But it would have been better to show the recipes, then follow it with the recipes made from the base recipe. And while these are definitely family friendly, a lot of these take at least an hour to make, so this isn't really a weeknight cookbook.

I think it may be better as a physical book
Some books just don’t do well on kindle and I think this is one of those books there are so many section s to things it became annoying to the point where by recipe 4 I was done
