 More food - less family please June 28, 2008

There is something annoying about this young man, his relatives and his friends - just a bit too perfect like the Waltons - but you can't fault the recipes. We have used them constantly.
 WHAT BOOK ARE THEY WRITING ABOUT? April 4, 2008
Cy Nick. (England)
I bought this book for my adult son after reading the reviews, it arrived this morning and I am left wondering just which books the other reviews are describing. The book has dozens of coloured photos, not of meals but of youngsters? The receipes are not set out clearly but with ingredients squashed into a column on the left side of the book. Clear they are not!
Sorry just can't find anything good to say about it, very disappointed and certainly not what I was expecting which was a book of plain simple straighforward recipes.
 in my daughter's words "absolutely brilliant" July 19, 2007

I bought this for my 10 year old daughter who has always been interested in cooking but wanted to get a book that was just hers and not a "kids book". This book was right up her street- and because of the lay out and large type the print was really easy for her to understand (she is dyslexic and finds small print difficult to follow!). She has found lots of recipes to try and thinks it brilliant that there is a load of veggie stuff - so she can cook for me (being the only veggie in the house!!)- I also like that it encourages her just to try different things and to make her own dressings etc. The fact that it is split into time sections is great and shows just what can be done in very little time. Now to get my 7 year old son cooking...
Another decent cookbook for teenagers July 2, 2007

I bought this cookbook for my 14 year old twin sons, who have always enjoyed cooking alongside me, but never attempted anything on their own before.
They both instantly loved this book, saw lots of things that they fancied cooking, but, unlike many other cookbooks, felt confident enough to give them a go.
My sons are very dyslexic, but they found the layout easy to follow and the pictures useful. The recipes are clearly written in a large, unadorned font, without being patronising. Personally, I found some of the chatty comments a little cheesy and wondered if they would put my sons off as being uncool, but they did not mind at all.
The book is divided into time estimates for cooking, which I found less helpful. However, it did not seem to bother my boys, who were quite keen to know how long between starting to cook and food on the table.
These are not groundbreaking recipes, or even the best renditions of well-known dishes, but they work fine, are well illustrated and introduce young cooks to a range of techniques in a very straightforward, jargon free way.
There are also helpful comments on diet and nutrition, delivered in a very matter of fact way.
Impressive all in all
If you've got children - buy it! February 5, 2007

A fantastic book which has revived by (almost teenage) son's flagging interest in cooking. The picture's of cool Sam and his mates certainly help, but if you're looking for a step up from children's cookery books, this and Sam's other book (Cooking up a Storm) are the ones to get.
The recipes are all 'cook from scratch', and do assume a bit of cookery know-how. The results are fantastic.
Only one criticism - there's no mention of the washing up!
