This review is from: The Kids-Did-It! Cookie Bookie: A (fun) cookie-baking cookbook for kids, illustrated by kids! (Paperback)

This is an awesome and colorful cookbook for adults and children. It makes a great gift. I have given away at least 8 to date. The children's drawings are wonderfully bright and animated; the recipes easy to understand and follow. I recommend it to all who love baking, are looking for new cookie recipes, who would like a fun activity to share with a grandchild or need a gift idea for a fellow parent, teacher, grandma, grandpa, sister, aunt, neighbor, etc.

This review is from: The Kids-Did-It! Cookie Bookie: A (fun) cookie-baking cookbook for kids, illustrated by kids! (Paperback)

I received this cookie bookie as a gift and have been raving about it ever since. Not only are the recipes fun, creative, and kid-friendly, the illustrations throughout the book were created by children! It is amazing the quality of art these children have produced, and I find myself thumbing through it repeatedly enjoying the vibrant color and cute designs the kids have come up with.

I plan to buy several more and attach them to baked goodies for Christmas presents this year for my friends with little ones. Will continue to be a great project for our rainy Northwest winters in the years to come! Highly recommend this book.

This book makes a great gift. My son and I have had a blast baking many of the recipes and he loves coloring his own photos to compliment each of the cookies. The artwork is adorable and I have found that my son is working on both his reading and math skills while we do something fun together. I highly recommend this book!
