Reviews

Gr 2–5—Child-friendly recipes combined with popular Mother Goose nursery rhymes. Author and trained chef Kozlowski teaches readers step-by-step to make a dish. The illustrations are a nice addition to the book, although the pictures only show the story of the nursery rhymes and not of the food described in each recipe. Children and parents alike may have a hard time picturing the finished product. Some of the recipe names are a little out of the ordinary, such as the "Bag Full of Black Wool Granola," "Mouse Tail Chicken Nuggets" (which ends with the sentence: "Have you ever tasted such a bite in your life as crunchy, munchy nugget mice?"), and "Pail of Cotton-Crown Water," which could deter some chefs. VERDICT Not as pleasing to the palette as one would hope, useful for programming ideas for professionals but not a must-buy for all libraries.—Joanne Albano, Commack Public Library, NY
