Good basic book.
I think this book is more suitable for teenagers. I always enjoy cooking with my 5 years old boy. So, I bought this book for more kids friendly recipes.

I picked up this cookbook in the hopes that I could teach my 7-year-old some basics about cooking that would last him well into his life. (And that it would hopefully prepare him for cooking in his single life, and possibly even encourage him to cook for his wife when he gets married someday!) I loved the bright graphics and beautiful pictures of the recipes, and the easy-to-follow format was great for my son. There was a lot of helpful information included regarding cooking basics, planning a menu, setting a table, how to eat healthy, reading food labels, and great pictures of different types of equipment used for cooking.
Some of the recipes that we enjoyed making together included Eggceptional Breakfast Bake, Tom Thumb’s Tacos, Tangled Twisters, Chicken Dippin’ Sticks, and Chocolate Pudding Bottoms Up Cake. He was really proud to be able to make something for the family to eat, and I thought he learned good lessons about shopping, food preparation, and clean-up. This is a great book to share with your kids! Enjoy!

good cookbook
This is a great beginner cookbook. I use it with seventh graders but it could be used with younger children as well.

I purchased this book for my son who had expressed an interest in cooking.
This is a great beginner book that lies flat on the table/counter … you don’t need 4 pair of hands to hold the book down (which ultimately might break the binding of the book).
The recipies are easy to read and sorted in a good manner.
We’ve even pulled a new ‘favorite’ recipe for Macaroni and Cheese from this book. Anytime we want homemade M&C, we dig out my this book!
My son …. we’ll he’s headed off to a Culinary Arts school.
Buy this book and you’ll eat well. =-)

A great cookbook for the novice cook!
I bought this cookbook for my grand-niece who is nine years old. She is starting to show an interest in cooking and I am so happy that I found this book.

Better for under 12
This book seems a little young-ish for my 12 year old daughter. She can still use it, but I was hoping for something a little more mature.

Very late delivery
I ordered this item on Dec 4th as a Christmas gift with 2 day shipping though Amazon Prime. It arrived on December 31st. What a waste.
