I bought this cookbook for my son after it was recommended by a friend. The text is clear and precise, the pictures next to the ingredients will help emergent readers, and the recipes are simple and appealing to kids. My son was excited to get started with the book and has already made chocolate sauce and chocolate fudge. The book also has clear cooking rules listed, such as washing your hands and wearing an apron, which my son adheres to each time he cooks, whether it is from this book or just helping with dinner. The most important thing to me is that the book is for the child, and the child will feel empowered by this.
