Summary: Teaches more than recipes
Comment: While this isn't exactly gourmet cooking, it is the type of cooking a child can handle. This also teaches a child about the tools you need for cooking and shows step-by-step pictures in some recipes. The ingredients are divided into the recipe parts and the instructions are numbered.
The recipe for butter might be worth buying the book because it teaches children how foods are made from scratch. They might never really think about how butter is made until they are older. This teaches them some of the basics. The carrot is used for coloring but I can't imagine why you would put the carrot in the blender with the cream. I just found that rather odd. The recipe for Popcorn and Milk is not exactly delicious. But hey, you can't always have it all. And who knows, maybe someone out there thinks carrot butter is good.
The recipes include:
Breakfast Sausage Balls
Butter & Jam Sandwiches
Buttermilk Cornbread
Creamy Oatmeal
Homemade Butter
Laura's Little Maple Cakes
Lemonade
Ma's Best Butter Cookies
Pancakes
Popcorn and Milk
Strawberry Jam
Most of the recipes look fine although I can't say I've tried any of them. I see this book as more of an introduction to cooking. Basically showing a child how foods are made.

Summary: No blue ribbons at the fair for these recipes!
Comment: Horrible! Horrible! Horrible! The recipes were terrible. Would anyone actually eat popcorn and milk mixed together?!! Is it really a recipe to just make popcorn and add it to milk?!! And the butter recipe was terrible. Butter is the easiest thing in the world to make... just add cream to a jar with a lid and shake. Why would you add a carrot to the cream? Why make it complicated? And do I really need a cookbook to make oatmeal or a butter and jam sandwich?

Summary: Not what we expected...
Comment: I purchased this book to find recipes to make for my daughters 8th birthday. She had read all the Little House Series and had a "Laura" party. I was very disappointed when the recipe for making butter called for a food proccesor. I was looking for recipes that would illustrate the frontier lifestyle not modern day cooking. The recipes called for ingredients they wouldn't have or use.
