PreS Up--Daniel Tiger fans rejoice! Your favorite character now has a cookbook chock full of tasty recipes. Thanks to text by Lloyd (Woods created the recipes), the dialogue is kid-focused and opens with kitchen instructions as well as how to wash hands properly. For children with discriminating palates, there is a page offering encouragement to try new foods. And if that isn't enough, the photography is delectable. Recipes are gluten or dairy free, vegan, or vegetarian with notes to convert to those diet needs. This is a kid-friendly cookbook in writing style, food items, graphics, and inclusion of commentary from the show's characters. This title is designed for adults and children to cook side-by-side, with recipes in cups and weights for however chefs measure. In addition to featuring items with Latino and Indian roots, there are twists on classic favorites. For example, grilled cheese sandwiches have coleslaw layered on for extra texture and vegetable consumption. To keep little chefs occupied while an item is baking or cooking, there are seek-and-find pages and fun food facts. To cap off this tasty offering, a recipe for creating your very own Daniel Tiger cake is included. VERDICT A delicious must-purchase.
