The Storybook Cookbook

Plot

Pinocchio's Poached Egg, Captain Hook's Poison Cake, Heidi's Toasted Cheese Sandwiches, Mrs. Cratchit's Christmas Date Pudding--what better way to start to cook than with recipes for the foods your favorite storybook characters ate!

Carol MacGregor has selected such unusual and delisious concoctions as Cold Lemon Soufflé, Lobster Bisque, and Strawberry Tarts, and such basics as Southern Fried Chicken and Scrambled Eggs--all 22 of them tested and easy-to-make. Each of her recipes is based on foods from the classics of children's literature.

Illustrated with charming drawings by Ray Cruz, this is a cookbook to delight the tastes of every child.
