2.0 out of 5 stars Not as Kid-Oriented as I'd Hoped, January 14, 1999

By A Customer

The authors suggest banning the use of the words "Yuk" and "Do I Have to Eat This?" I couldn't agree more, and I would start by banning recipes like Salmon Asparagus Roulade, Shrimp and Fish Mornay, Tuna Souffles, and Asparagus Crepes from a kids cookbook. My kids, at least, DON'T love to eat this way. Not exactly what I was hoping to find.

4.0 out of 5 stars Recommended for a family cookbook collection, August 6, 1999

By A Customer

Practical recipes that are delicious for kids and parents alike. Ingredients are common and easy-to-find. Wide variety of recipes, from down-to-earth standby's to fanciful concoctions! I found this book at the library, and have used it several times a week since! My husband loves it too.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not what I had hoped for, January 31, 2001

By	"kangarex" (Keokuk, IA United States) - See all my reviews

There are some good recipes in this book. Unfortunately, you have to hunt them up, because there are also a number that caused my husband to go "YUK" louder than my kids. Some of the recipes are just plain weird. Pancake Soup? Carrot Mushroom Loaf? It's also not terribly well organized and too tightly bound, so the recipes I do like are frequently hard to find, and when I do find them, I can't get the book to stay open to read them. I would recommend First Meals by Annabel Karmel as a good alternative, particularly for people with younger kids.
