This book would be great to read with your child at home. It has cute little stories and recipes. This book would be great if you are trying to get your child interesting in cooking and helping out in the kitchen, or if that is of interest to them. I like this book because I haven't seen anything like it before. I would have loved to have had this when I was young because I loved cooking with my mom. The illustrations are great and provide kids with a character to think of for the meal they are preparing.
