 absolutely perfect!Apr 01, 2007
By Sahne
I was looking through quite a few books before settleing on this one. For my two boys I knew I needed pictures at least of the dish and a clear discription. I also found that other recipe books were packed with treats and snacks what I really didn't want nor need.
There is a list of ingredients (which makes it easy to check if you have everything) and a list of tools
The recipe is then divided into steps , and again subdivided for easy reading. There is a photograph of pretty much every other step that depicts other children cooking the dish at those very steps. At the end there are suggestions for easy variations which is awesome because some kids just might like different ingredients and it stretches the 25 recipes to quite a few more.
The recipes are healthy, basic but with a great variety.So there should be something for everyone. Great buy! Great book! Definately a keeper.

Another great cookbook from WSFeb 13, 2008
By K. Taylor
I got this for my 6 year old who loves to cook. His favorite "cookbook" is the WS Baking book so I figured this one would be an easy transition to a wider array of foods. This cookbook, like the Baking book, is easily read by my son and makes really delicious foodstuffs. The proportions aren't huge and the end product is flavorful. I especially appreciate the culinary education that WS tries to impart to the kids as they cook and bake. The only negative comment I have to make is regarding the Ultimate Ham and Cheese Sandwich recipe--the Gruyere cheese is not a favorite among kids (cheddar can be used in its place). Bottomline: This book successfully encourages kids to get involved in the actual cooking of their food as well as enjoying the end product...without having to make food look like cutesy animals or insects, like so many ridiculous kids "cookbooks" do.

 Tasty and Easy RecipesJan 13, 2009
By Mom of 2
"amg"
My 7 year old daughter loves to cook. She has the Emeril Lagasse Kids' cookbook and we have cooked many recipes with much success - tasty and fun, but not too time consuming. The Williams Sonoma cookbook is also another winner. Plus, there are plenty of pictures for the kids to be inspired by. This cookbook has a good variety - snacks, breakfast foods, lunch and dinner, along with desserts. Everything we have cooked has been tasty and fun to prepare!
