Book Description

Good Housekeeping Cookbooks

Fifty delicious, Good Housekeeping-tested recipes will lure budding chefs into the kitchen and start them off on a lifetime of good cooking. The brand-new spiral-bound format is easy to work with too!

 

Look, mom and dad: we cooked it ourselves! With every technique clearly shown, and a fun, accessible format, children will eagerly pull out the measuring cups, grab the mixing bowls, and begin preparing these temptingly tasty, kid-friendly dishes. And these are real, crowd-pleasing meals, including Scrumptious Scrambled Eggs, Surprise Burgers, Oven Roasted Chicken with Vegetables, and that all-time favorite: chocolate chip cookies.

Of course, Good Housekeeping lays out all the cooking and safety basics up front, from handling the food properly to using appliances correctly. (Parents will be pleased to know it also covers cleaning up!) Many of the recipes are illustrated with a color photograph. Every recipe tells how long the prep and cooking should take, has a difficulty rating, and gives guidelines on the amount of adult supervision needed.

Who better to trust your children with than Good Housekeeping!

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Grade 4-6?This offering is comparable in many ways to Better Homes and Gardens New Junior Cook Book (Better Homes and Gardens Bks., 1989) and Angela Wilkes's The Children's Step-by-Step Cookbook (DK, 1994). All three are general, beginning cookbooks for approximately the same audience, illustrated with full-color photographs that show children cooking and eating, and/or how and what to cook. Each title has about 50 recipes that are more-or-less simple, nutritious, and likely to be enjoyed by this age group. Directions in all of the books are clear, and are logically and attractively arranged. Good Housekeeping, however, places an emphasis on safety and cooking methods: a 22-page introduction gives thorough details about the dangers of sharp utensils, bacteria, and heat, followed by the importance of precise measurement, etc. Children who actually read all of this instead of going straight to the recipes may be frightened away by the many possibilities of failure or bodily harm. Another way of looking at this presentation is that the author takes no cooking knowledge for granted, but explains in detail every move beginning cooks must make in order to insure a successful dish. This is not a necessary purchase for libraries that own either of the other books, but large collections will benefit from having all three titles to accommodate the various tastes of budding young chefs.?Carolyn Jenks, First Parish Unitarian Church, Portland, ME

5.0 out of 5 stars Happy Aunt, March 3, 2008
This review is from: The Good Housekeeping Illustrated Children's Cookbook (Good Housekeeping Cookbooks) (Spiral-bound)
I bought this book for my 10 yr old niece and she loves it! She has already made several dishes. Excellent for children 7 and up. My son who's 8 also wanted the book for himself. I'll have to get another one;-) Lots of pictures and easy to follow, great for adults too, especially those learning to cook for the first time.

Thanks

5.0 out of 5 stars Great recipes teach kids how to cook, October 17, 2011
By 
T. Martin (Lexington, MA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is the best kids' cookbook I have ever come across. It is not cutesy. There's no gimmicky commentary or graphic dazzle. It does not involve building a log house out of pretzels. It really teaches kids to cook, and it teaches them to cook real food. Each recipe tells a kid exactly how to do things safely, without an adult hovering. The recipes are so good that I use two of them as meals for company (the roasted chicken with vegetables, and the chicken fingers with mustard dipping sauce). I know this book has been out for a while, but none of the others I've looked at can hold a candle to it.
