I have loved this cookbook ever since I got it by sending in a mail-in certificate as a teenager and receiving my copy. There is a recipe for every letter of the alphabet and I have cooked most of them myself or with my children. It has held up very well over the years and is still one of my favorites. Easy recipes with great ingredients and simple directions. A must have for every young cook, mother, or grandmother to share with their own young cooks.
A great beginner cook book for children. I made every recipe in mine as a child and found one online for my daughter. Someday soon when she is interested in cooking I hope she will enjoy making these simple and easy recipes with me.
Some recipes are healthier than others... most of the recipes are treats. An adult is needed to assist in making substitutions for kids with allergen and dietary concerns.
We got our kids a copy of this book when they were all young, and one more for me. Now our kids are all grown and the shortcake recipe is still the best, and a go-to favorite every summer.
