More About the Author
Beth Sheresh has been cooking as long as she can remember and writing about food for a number of years. Starting when she was standing tip-toe on a kitchen chair, she learned to cook from a series of masters of kitchen magic. As a pre-teen, she moved to a town without a decent bakery and taught herself to bake bread. Since then, she has taught herself many more skills and helped lots of young friends learn to cook, always creating a signature cookie for them along the way.

This review is from: Picture Yourself Cooking With Your Kids (Paperback)
Oh, What a great cookbook! I own over 3,000 cookbooks, several for children (our daughter is 6), and this is one of the best. Excellent recipes, teachable nutrition facts, and helpful hints. I highly recommend it!

This review is from: Picture Yourself Cooking With Your Kids (Paperback)
I'm so impressed by this book. The recipes are not the standard kid-fare. They are healthy, tasty, wonderful recipes that will teach your kids to enjoy the real flavor of fresh foods and home cooking. There are photos of the foods being prepared--awesome for those who tend to second guess or wonder if they are doing things right. I'm going to buy a few more copies for friends.

More than a cookbook,
By HOZ (West Coast) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Picture Yourself Cooking With Your Kids (Paperback)
This is a great cookbook. It contains much more than recipes, though. This book really teaches a healthy lifestyle, and includes strategies for passing that lifestyle on to your kids. Americans have largely embraced a fast-paced, fast-food lifestyle that encourages us to eat massive quantities of empty calories. This book offers helpful strategies to avoid these bad habits, without being preachy or sounding like the hippie handbook.
The recipes are great, too. The pancakes in particular are fabulous- healthy, tasty, great texture. My husband made them with our 2-year-old niece, and they had a blast. It was a simple enough recipe for her to be able to "help" a fair amount. All the recipes involve easy measurements, so kids of all ages can help in varying degrees.
