Cookery books for young people

 

This week, we look at three books about cooking for young people:

 

My First Cookbook by Lenard Minnow

 

Lennard Minnow’s last cookery book was a huge success across the world. And now, he has written a cookery book just for children. It has lots of lovely reading activities, so that children can get to know the names of more unusual foods. It explains in a easy-to-read way how to cook and make it clear that cooking can be a hobby that young and old can really enjoy.

 

Cooking for Students by Cormac O’Dally

The idea for this book came when Cormac O’Dally’s two sons went away to university. They never cooked and had no idea what to do in the kitchen, so Cormac wrote this book to help them. The photo on the cover of the book shows Cormac and his sons laughing and enjoying great new food ideas. The meals are very simple, like cheese on toast, but they’re easy to prepare and good for you, too.

 

Everybody Can Cook by Denise Macon

With its ‘look-as-you-cook’ photos, you can see the author doing everything that you need to do in this wonderful new book. And, as the title says, you’ll soon be able to make tasty meals. Many of them come from all four corners of the world. The author received £4,000 when the book was chosen as Cookbook of the Year in a competition this year.
