About this title: Taking a basic and humorous approach, a columnist for "Today's Parent" magazine gently leads culinary neophytes through the entire gamut of kitchen experience--from cleaning a stove to outfitting a first kitchen, from boiling an egg to planning an entire meal. Each of the 200 recipes is organized by course and main ingredient, and coded to fit the new cook's requirements. Illustrations throughout.

"Pushing 30, I still love this book. My grandmother bought it for me when I left home, it goes over things like "how to shop" that a kid who had no interest in cooking might not know. Some of it is pretty basic (even for me!) but considering how much most cookbooks assume you know everything... well, I like this.
The recipes are tasty, easy to follow, and man, I make EXCELLENT cheesecake thanks to this book. :)"
"This is a great cookbook for beginning cooks and great basic cooking instructions for those wanting to learn more. It has mostly from scratch cooking recipes and focuses on eating nourishing, inexpensive meals. I learned a lot from it and continue to use it almost every week."
"Bought this cookbook for Georgia when she was about 11. She made several things from it. It is written in an entertaining, amusing style, the recipes use very little "convenience foods", and everything that we have tried has been delicious. A wonderful book for the young, beginning cook. The Bruschetta recipe has become one of our standards. Very simple, very quick, the best!"
