Customer Reviews

Very nice cookbook for the little ones
Santa brought this cookbook for my daughter (age six) who had asked him for a recipe book. We've made several of the recipes already. My daughter enjoys picking through the recipes and choosing which one to make next. The vanilla cupcakes were delicious and the Bull's Eye was a hit. I've noticed that my picky eater daughter is much more likely to eat things she made herself. We also made the stuffed shells which called for cottage cheese instead of ricotta. They were good but next time I think we'll use ricotta. Other reviewers have complained that there are no photos of the recipes which is true, but there are usually cute drawings. Overall we really like the book. We've never seen the tv show but we're going to look for it.

Great First Cookbook
I purchased this for my neice for Christmas. After looking through a stack of first cookbooks for kids, I went with this one because I liked the layout. The recipes were for things kids actually like to eat. The recipes were very straight forward and easy to follow. There were illustrations of all the needed utencils and ingredients. And finally, there were great tips for new cooks, like how to tell if an egg is fresh. I am way past the target audience age, but I seriously considered buying one of these for myself.

Awesome cookbook
I accidently ordered 2 of these cookbooks..who knows how these things happen?? When I received the order I was faced with mailing the extra book & all that hassle which I didn't really need at that point. A day or two later I had my quilting ladies over for a day of quilting & chatting (solving the problems of the world, etc.), & happened to mention this wonderful cookbook that I had seen at Lowes & purchased online from you. I said something about needing to return the extra one & brought it out for all to see. Well..that caused quite a stir, as most of the ladies wanted to buy it from me!! We practicly had to draw straws to keep peace!! It is a wonderful, colorful, practical cookbook that I am sure my grandaughter Rachel(age 9) will ejoy, both when I am visiting her in Houston & when she & her Mother get together in the kitchen! I wouldn't be surprised if some of my friends have't already bought it for their grandkids. Thank you!
