Recenzii

The literature and foods featured in the book will appeal to children in grades kindergarten-6, but adults will enjoy reading and cooking, too. The book stimulates a sense of joy and fun, and hunger to read and eat. It's recommended for school and public libraries, as well as curriculum centers in academic libraries.
Although the recipes are not for children (most are geared toward adult tastes), they do give insight into the writers' and artists' personalities. The entries also include a brief biography, a small black-and-white photo, a quote from one of the author's or illustrator's books, a selected list of their books, and a list of books related to concepts found in their works. Indexes include both a general and a recipe index. This volume can be used for themed units and will give teachers and librarians ideas for connecting children with the individuals featured.
Here is a fun collection about children's authors that contains stories about their lives, lists of their books, and several recipes connected to the books that they have written..If you cook with children as they sample the literature, this is a good addition to your recipe collection.
Like its companion, Authors in the Kitchen, McElmeel intends this book for teachers and librarians hoping to connect students to literature through food. The book focuses on 50 popular children's authors, bringing together their biographical information, their favorite recipes (and the stories behind them), and selected reading lists. Authors profiled include Eric A. Kimmel, Berthe Amoss, Betsy Byars, Jean Fritz, Tom Birdseye, Helen Ketteman, and Johanna Hurwitz.
