In this colorful cookbook, sure to catch the eye of the youngest chief, we are taken into a world of delightful, yummy children's recipes.
My granddaughter and I prepared, cooked and shared "Spectacular Berry Pancakes." Yummy! What a treat.
Strawberry shares great recipes that are fun to make, and fun to eat; from breakfast right through the day. She gives cooking tips, rules of safety and even a few stories are tucked into this wonderful book. A little added plus is a set of measuring spoons to use. Nice touch.

Colorful, useful, kid and parent friendly, this is a wonderful book for young and old.
A fun read, along with a super learning and sharing experience. Recommended.

MidWest Book Review

My son LOVES making things from this cookbook with me. It has some of his favorite characters, and many extray yummy recipes.

Because he made them from his Strawberry Shortcake cookbook, he has been willing to try some foods that he refused to look at before!

The measuring spoons are great!

I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this book. It has a hard cover with the spiral binding. It will hold up well...and I think we will be using it often!

It has a lot of recipes as well as little stories. It came with some measuring spoons as well. I think my 5 year old will be very excited to get this for Christmas!

Very cute and sturdy cookbook. My daughter (and sons) love to look through this cookbook and decide what they'd like to make next. They've always liked to help me cook, but it's nice to have a kid-friendly book that appeals especially to them.
Recipes are easy and tasty. There's a good variety of recipes as well, from snacks to salads to, of course, desserts.
Great buy for the money.

When I was in college the children I babysat had this cookbook and we would use it often. I looked it up because I wanted the recipe for the hashbrown bake and was unable to find it online anywhere and was glad to find a used copy to order for myself. It now sits on the shelf with the rest of my cookbooks and I use it from time to time whether I'm cooking with children or not lol

I was so excited for our excursion into the recipes but after the brownies I'm pretty freaked out. The brownies looked wrong as batter, but I went ahead and put them in the oven. They came out like chocolate charcoal. I triple checked the ingredients before I put them in so there is a typo somewhere.

We also are in the middle of a batch of the candy cane cookies. I'm not sure how they'll turn out, but the dough is really difficult for little hands to work with. Very loose, so it cracks and breaks when you try to roll it into a candy cane. I've had to assembly line it and do most of the work just to get them off of their boards and onto the cookie sheet.

So, besides the cute stories and great layout I'm pretty unhappy. A lot of hype for a lot of nothing. I'm going to do more internet research to see if anyone else has found typos in the recipes.

My 5-year-old daughter picked this up at a Scholastic warehouse event. She loves it! She loves to look through the pictures and try to figure out the ingredients and directions (without being able to read yet).
It has a variety of recipes from breakfast items to lunch/dinner, snacks, and drinks and desserts. There is a glossary of cooking terms in the back and it has a sturdy lay-flat binding and heavy duty wipeable cover.
We have made a number of the items (very easy) and it had given me the opportunity to introduce basic cooking techniques to her. She loves that she has her own set of measuring spoons (pink no less).
The recipes and ingredients are simple but tasty and definitely geared to appeal to children and their attention span.

Great for kids. I purchased this for my daughter and she loves it. Very cute also.
