A whimsical read-aloud of delicious answers to ridiculous questions about what can -- and cannot -- be done in the kitchen Food critic and author Joshua David Stein tackles the world of cookery with his signature quirk and charm.
From the practical (Can I fry a scoop of gelato?) to the playful (Do frozen peas grow on frozen trees?), each vignette features an engaging question and a satisfying reveal, all revolving around the preparation of food.
The simple yet sophisticated hand-drawings by Julia Rothman provide authenticity and a balance of seriousness to the silliness at hand.
Incorporating humor, word play, logic and illogic, foreign foods, and even some cookbook vocabulary, this read-aloud book offers children facts to share and maybe even the impetus to get involved in the kitchen.
