PRETEND SOUPand other real recipesby MOLLIE KATZEN and Ann HendersonSee more children's cookbooks click here New hardcover book, 96 pages. Recipes are all in both written and picture form. Suitable for ages 3 and older Mollie Katzen, renowned and beloved author of The Moosewood Cookbook and other vegetarian classics, and educator Ann Henderson bring the grown-up world of real cooking to a child's level. Children as young as three years old and as old as eight become head chef while an adult serves as guide and helper. Extensively classroom- and home-tested, these recipes are designed to inspire an early appreciation for creative, wholesome food. Whimsical watercolour critters and pictorial versions of each recipe will help the young cook understand and delight in the process. Just consider all that can be explored in the kitchen: counting, reading readiness, science awareness, self-confidence, patience and, importantly, food literacy. Pizza, after all, does not come 'from a telephone' You and your child can have great fun finding it all out! This cookbook has imperial measurements, although there aren't a lot of ingredients or recipes that actually need precise measurements.
