Great recipes using ingredients most of us have in our cupboard. Most recipes simple enough to fix after a busy day at work. Recipes are every day food that children will eat. Good book, fair price; appreciate author's sense of humor. Not just for 'beginners'. I've been eating and cooking venison for 40 years and still find it a useful cookbook.

I love when cookbook authors give us a glimpse into their own worlds instead of just recipes. I found this book entertaining and enjoyable. Her personal stories and suggestions on how to deal with children't taste buds were appreciated. I look forward to the next installment.

Anyone who has ever cooked venison will love this book. The recipes are easy to follow and taste great. Learning how the author got her kids to eat venison was great.
