More food from books, or, food in books, or ....

From the subtitle I thought this was going to be a book about foods found in kid's books, but it's more like they were inspired by the book ... which was fine, and fun. :-) Once Upon a Time in the Kitchen: Recipes and Tales from Classic Children's Stories, by Carol Odell and illustrated by Anna Pignataro has simple meals for kids and parents to make as well as short entry from each of the books used.

An Edible Alphabet: 26 Reasons to Love the Farm, by Carl Watterson, and illustrated by Michela Sorrentino starts with one of the few veggies I like, and ends with one I don't like at all! More than just food entries make up this alphabet, helpful insects are included as well.

When things go all topsy turvey Mary Poppins and the Banks children take over the kitchen. And, since Mary Poppins is involved, the experience will be anything but ordinary! Complete with an alphabet of recipes, Mary Poppins in the Kitchen: a Cookery Book with a Story, by P.L. Travers and drawings by Mary Shepard, is a delightful book.
