A Little Book for a Little Cook
L. P. Hubbard
Read by Rosslyn Carlyle
This charming little book compiles together a number of recipes, set out in an easy to understand manner, along with a poetic story about the stages of bread production. This book was produced as a promotional for a flour production company called Pillsbury. This is a "modern" update compared to the original edition of the book. This version has exact oven temperature settings for each recipe included in a preface for the book, along with more precise suggestions for the baking time. The book has been written for children, however I am certain that adults could enjoy the book equally as much as a child would. - Summary by Rosslyn Carlyle (0 hr 23 min)

Reviews
Cute and practical
Sandrainia3
Cute, from a time of restrained advertising and a solid belief in children learning early that not only is simple cooking easy to do but a great deal of fun. I learned, by age 10, enough cooking to not only feed myself but enough to pre plan a usual night meal for myself, but well enough to put out an entire Holiday meal for 20 plus others. By that same age I was washing, drying, folding, and ironing all my own clothes. My kids were taught to do their own laundry by age 7-8. Both of them still can out cook me, today!!!
Really?Is that the way to read

I had to turn it off. The reader had an accent. And was WAY to close to the microphone.ð
