ARC Book Review:
I was not familier with Chop Chop Family magazine. But this was a fresh, colorful, inviting cook book! There are so many compelling ideas – accessible, appealing, and joyfully doable. The explanations take just the right tone, so that children and their grownups will fall in love with cooking while learning both techniques and nutrition wisdom. I can’t wait to try some of these dishes myself. And I will be checking out the magazine.
