EASY PEASY SWEETIE PIE.
by Mary Contini.
Ebury Press, 12.99.
I liked this book a lot; it is well presented, colourful and inviting. The presentation is really good and clear, with explanations of all the different cookery methods we use in the kitchen. It is beautifully illustrated - the lovely luscious pictures make your mouth water, and would certainly encourage any children and carer to get cooking. The layout is simple and straightforward and seems easy to follow. The children's handwriting also adds an element of fun.
My only reservation is that it is a shame that the recipes are primarily sweet. I would love to see a more savoury version in the same format. But having said that, anything that encourages parents and carers to get back into the kitchen preparing and cooking with children will always gets my thumbs-up!
