This book is similar to the McElmeels' Authors in the Kitchen (Libraries Unlimited, 2005) as both include biographical information on 50 children's authors and illustrators using their favorite recipes as a way of introducing them. Although the recipes are not for children (most are geared toward adult tastes), they do give insight into the writers' and artists' personalities. The entries also include a brief biography, a small black-and-white photo, a quote from one of the author's or illustrator's books, a selected list of their books, and a list of books related to concepts found in their works. Indexes include both a general and a recipe index. This volume can be used for themed units and will give teachers and librarians ideas for connecting children with the individuals featured.
