Cook It Step by StepCook It Step by Step - Learn to cook 100 easy recipes introduces children and their parents to the basics of cooking from four classic ways to cook an egg to four different ways of roasting vegetables to go with the chicken (which they also learn how to roast complete with home-made stuffing).

The 100 recipes are split into five sections: breakfast, light bites, main meals, sweets and preparing for events like a party. The last section has a meal and party planner so that the children can really impress the adults in their lives with their fantastic new life skills.

At eight Toby wants to cook independently, for him the recipes were ambitious but not impossible which kept him motivated and keen to do more cooking. Our copy of the Cook it Step by Step is already full of their home-made bookmarks with plans for future creations!

I like this book because the step-by step guides have lovely clear photographs and photographs to aspire to of the finished items, the recipes are contemporary and relevant to family life and the instructions are nice and simple. The range of recipes and cooking techniques is broad and we have already enjoyed Toby's delicious home-made bread with butternut squash soup with a vegetable platter, two Victoria sponges and a batch of cookies! I'm looking forward to his pizzas already.

We would recommend Cook It Step by Step to anyone wanting a children's cookbook.
