Bon Appetit! by Jessie Hartland - ADVISABLE


Hartland, Jessie Bon Appetit!:  the delicious life of Julia Childs.  Schwarz and Wade (Random), 2012.  $18.  PICTURE BOOK.  

Julia Child was born in Pasadena, California 100 years ago.  Her joie de vivre and perseverance changed cooking in America and created the basis for the many cooking shows on TV today.  This picture book is bright and charming – the text is a bit tough at first, but goes better as you get used to it.  And it contains two complete recipes – learn to make crepes like pro!  Any school with a cooking class would enjoy this.
