Fairy tales, some familiar and some that may be new to readers are accompanied with a recipe that relates to an element of each story. An example is Stone Soup is followed by a recipe for Stone Soup. Little Red Riding Hood is followed by a recipe for deviled eggs, a treat from her famous basket. The book is organized like a cookbook with stories and recipes divided into Breakfasts, Lunches, Soups, Dinners, and Desserts. Notes from the author can be found in the margins of the stories and facts about some of the ingredients can be found in the margins of the recipes. This book would be an excellent resource for programming in public libraries as well as fun for kids to learn some cooking skills (with parent supervision, 0f course).Genre: Non-Fiction
