From School Library Journal:

PreS-Gr 1—No longer sidelined in the kitchen, young children can join in the cooking fun. Though kids are the obvious focus of these books (adorably showcased in color photos), cooking directives and instructions are geared toward adults, who will pick up solid recommendations on imparting dietary wisdom to fledgling chefs. Young foodies can participate in creating appetizing recipes, and they'll delight in sampling the simple, inventive, and scrumptious goodies they help whip up, from zucchini muffins and gingerbread people to ice pops. Juices & Smoothies also contains brief information on the health benefits of each drink (for instance, Jump-Start is a "good juice to drink during sports activities because it is isotonic"). Tantalizing, kid-friendly names, such as "Princess Peachy, "Run Rabbit Run," "Money Bags," and "Cheesy Feet" exemplify equally fun dishes. These books will easily become everyday favorites.—Kathryn Diman, Bass Harbor Memorial Library, Bernard, ME
