Honest Pretzels
And 64 Other Amazing
Recipes for Cooks Ages 8 & Up

By Mollie Katzen

Honest Pretzels  
Mollie Katzen has done it again. She's created clever recipes that kids and their parents will love to make and eat together. Her first cookbook for little chefs, Pretend Soup and Other Real Recipes, has been a best-seller and kids' favorite since 1994. Her new book for slightly older cooks shows every sign of being another winner.

For kids who are ready to help with dinner for real!

The recipes in Honest Pretzels are designed so that kids can run the show-with adult help. The two-part directions-ingredients, equipment, and safety tips, followed by the step-by-step illustrated recipes-will help kids learn skills such as sequencing, reading, math, and logic as well as encourage self-confidence as they help prepare family meals. And Mollie's bright illustrations capture the fun of the art of cooking. Recipes such as Spaghetti Pie, Carnival Baked Potatoes, and Hip Bean Dip will have everyone clamoring for a bite!


  • Real Techniques
  • 100% Vegetarian
