Kid's Cooking is a very slightly messy manual for kids and their adult assistants. Over the years, this classic collection of parent-approved recipes has become the favorite cookbook of countless thousands of real kids in real kitchens. It's printed on wipe-clean, glossy pages (on the remote chance that anything gets spilled), and packaged with a set of color-coded measuring spoons.

From the table of contents page that pictures a flower made from celery stalks, cherry tomatoes, and carrots, to the introduction of the My Pyramid site provided by the government, this title encourages young readers to eat healthy. Photographs throughout the book show young readers making healthy choices: Mom and son cook together in the kitchen, preparing a salad and snacking on carrots. Mother and daughter share a special time working together in the garden. Two young friends create a vegetable pizza. The text is simple and easy to read. A glossary, index, and helpful Internet pages are included. Part of the Healthy Eating With MyPyramid series.
