Customer Reviews

Great for everyone
Not a clunker in it. All of these recipes are great. (I haven't tried them all, but I have read the book cover to cover)I have 6 boys age 4-20 and they have loved all of the ones we have tried. They are easy, nutritious, and fairly inexpensive and FULL of flavor. The inspirational essays are wonderful and inspiring as well as humorous. This is in the top 5 of my cookbooks.

Terrific!
As a busy working mom (who isn't these days!), the title attracted me to pick up this book having read many of the other Chicken Soup books years ago when I had time to read! I had my 8- and 10-year old sons look through it and bookmark recipes that interested them. I'm pleased to say that they bookmarked virtually the entire book! They love to cook with me so we'll have fun trying these fun and easy recipes. Great photos that show what the finished product will look like, too!

A must for moms with young kids
I bought this thinking I was going to give it away as a gift, but after looking through it I decided it was perfect for me. I love it!
