Annabel Karmel is the international best-selling author on baby and children's food and nutrition and champions the cornerstone message that creating a healthy diet for your children is crucial to their healthy development
A mother of three children, Annabel was inspired to write children's cookbooks following the death of her first child Natasha. Although the illness was not diet related, Annabel was determined to give her second child the best possible start, seeking out only the healthiest foods. Annabel spent two years researching child nutrition and development and interviewing leading UK pediatricians and child nutritionists. She realized that no one had really explored the truth about what babies should and could eat and naturally started creating recipes herself that were both delicious and healthy. She is (resolute) passionate about helping parents provide their babies with fresh food and providing solutions for busy mums who want to feed their family a healthy meal.
With her imaginative approach to creating healthy and delicious food, Annabel is the expert in getting your child, no matter how fussy, to eat a healthier diet ' without them even noticing! She makes it easy to prepare fresh baby food and has developed (tricks) ways to improve children's nutrition on a daily basis, from hiding vegetables in other foods, packing powerhouse lunchboxes and creating healthy junk food . All the recipes are tested on children after all if it doesn't taste good they wont eat it'
Annabel has written 16 books. Her first book the Healthy Baby Meal Planner was published in the US in 1991 by Simon and Schuster and has become the authoritative guide on feeding babies and children. Her best-selling books in the US also include First Meals, Lunchboxes, 100 Top Baby Purees, Favorite Family Meals, The Mom and Me Cookbook. Impressively, every single recipe has been conceived and cooked in Annabel's own kitchen.
A household name in the UK has enabled Annabel to develop ranges for feeding babies and toddlers, food preparation equipment, children's food, baking and party ware. Her recipes are so popular that UK supermarkets now stock a range of her meals. (Annabel is currently working with US manufacturers to launch innovative product ranges for the US market) no not yet
With books sales of over 3 million worldwide, this is likely to grow fast as four new books are being published in the US this year including Baby's first Year Album, The Toddler Cookbook ,Baby and Toddler Food Diary and the Fussy Eaters Recipe Book

This book has big colorful pictures and easy to understand information about fruits and vegetables and more. It makes children want to help cook and what they cook they will eat! It's a great first cookbook or an additional choice for the child who already has one.
my kids love helping in the kitchen, and I'm so happy to have found this book! a lot of kids cookbooks lean more towards "silly" recipes, thinking kids will like the way the food looks...however, this cookbook provides more classic recipes that are both easy for kids to prepare (with a little help) and really tasty (using ingredients that most kids are familiar with)! we've made several recipes out of this book so far, and I will definately be looking for other Annabel Karmel cookbooks!
I bought this as a gift for one of my granddaughters and ended using some of the recipes myself. The way Ms. Karmel has written the recipes are perfect for children who enjoy working in th kitchen, easy to make, easy to follow instructions, great illustrations, and the best of it they taste good.
