“Be part of the fun and join Mama, Papa, Brother, Sister, and Honey Bear as they cook up holiday favorites and some unique eats for friends and family,” the back jacket states in Mike Berenstain’s book, The Berenstain Bears’ Holiday Cookbook: Cub-Friendly Cooking with an Adult.~ What ~Part of the Berenstain Bears / Living Lights series, this numbered ninety-six-page hardbound targets child four to eight years old, especially those that like making food recipes with adult supervision. With no profanity or scary scenes, it has full-page, full-color photographs of completed food dishes. Due to some complicated wording, its instructions would best be read out loud to beginner readers.In this book, there are forty food creations, divided into six chapters covering special holidays throughout the year. Valentine’s Day, Easter, Fourth of July, Fall Festivities, Thanksgiving, and Christmas have six to eight recipes each.From suggested Red Bear-y Smoothie, Rabbit Food, and Freedom Trifle to Candy Corn Punch, Grizzly Gran’s Famous Pumpkin Pie, and Accordion Potatoes, the title of the recipe is on the left side of the page with the ingredients needed in a goldenrod highlighted rectangle and directions in number format. The opposite side of the page has a photograph of the completed dish.~ Why ~Some children love to make food, and most of these concoctions are simple with easy to follow directions that range from two to nine steps, so they will need an adult to supervise them. Every holiday section begins with Bible verse written out, a simple Bear story, and a four-line saying; the ending includes a measurement chart. Some of the recipes sound and look mouth-watering.~ Why Not ~With the book not having an index, one must look up the recipe on the contents page, keeping in mind some could be used for other holidays with some adjustments. Having no preparation time mentioned in the instructions, the recipe may take longer than expected.~ Who ~Since Stan and Jan passed away years ago, their son Mike continues to follow in his parents’ footsteps with the Berenstain Bear series and products. He lives in Pennsylvania.~ Wish ~I wish the book had preparation times as well as caloric content for those that have to watch their diet (including children).~ Want ~If you like the Berenstain Bears series, this one will make a fun addition to year-round cooking of delicious meals, drinks, and treats on holidays and other special occasions.Thanks to Z-Blog Squad for providing this book for reading and reviewing.

We thoroughly enjoyed the first Berenstain Bears cookbook and couldn’t wait to read The Berenstain Bears’ Holiday Cookbook: Cub-Friendly Cooking with An Adult (written by Mike Berenstain: published by Zonderkidz) and were delighted to discover that it met our high expectations.What I enjoy most about books like The Berenstain Bears’ Holiday Cookbook is the fact that they seek to help kids get in the kitchen and get cooking. They contain some basic cooking information, while also including recipes that will be fun and tasty. This book contains 40 recipes that are divided into six sections that help you celebrate the year with your cubs. Including everything from Valentine’s Day to the Fourth of July and of course Fall Festivities and Christmas too. I love that it includes ideas for fun party trays, especially the Stars and Stripes Bites and Rabbit Food. Plus, it also includes yummy recipes that the whole family would enjoy such as Candy Corn Punch, Cornbread with Honey Butter and Winter Sweet Potato Soup.I believe that cookbooks should include photographs with their recipes and I’m happy to say that there is a photo of each recipe in The Berenstain Bears’ Holiday Cookbook. I’m so glad they did that, otherwise how would I ever know how cute a heart-shaped pizza could be!This book is a great addition to our library and I believe that it would be great for any family that likes to cook or would like to learn more about cooking. Get your copy of The Berenstain Bears’ Holiday Cookbook today so that you can start making these recipes this fall. It isn’t just a cute book, it’s very practical because not only will your children learn things, you will too. I already learned more about oil-based food dye and I had no idea how to stuff Krispie Easter Eggs.So, I guess the old adage is true. You do learn something new every day!(I received a copy of the book from BookLook Bloggers in exchange for an honest review, all opinions are my own.)

The Berenstain Bears’ Holiday Cookbook: Cub-Friendly Cooking With an Adult features forty recipes and is divided into six sections: Valentine’s Day, Easter, Fourth of July, Fall Festivities, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. At the beginning of each section, there is a page that includes a segment of a Berenstain Bears story relating to that specific holiday.Although the cookbook has a Berenstain Bears theme, it is a minor theme; each of the right-facing pages consists entirely of a photograph of the prepared food or drink, and each of the left-facing pages features the recipe, along with some very small Berenstain Bears drawings. Customers who would enjoy this book are those wanting fun, easy cooking activities to do with their children. If customers are solely looking for a Berenstain Bears novelty item, they would be better off buying a Berenstain Bears stuffed animal or one of the Berenstain Bears’ classic storybooks.At first glance, some of the snacks may not appear to be extremely scrumptious; however, upon looking closer, customers may see the positives of this cookbook: the snacks are relatively easy to prepare, and for the most part, they are healthy. The photographs in the cookbook are not the type that one would find on an idyllic Pinterest board, and instead are photographs of what the snacks would look like after the average person prepared them. Because of this, a child (with the help of a parent) can easily prepare food that resembles the book’s realistic photos.The cookbook is definitely geared for children (with the help of an adult). The recipes that looked the most exciting to prepare – and enjoyable to eat – were Pink Party Popcorn, Lovey-Dovey Banana Bread, Creepy Crawly Pasta Salad, Mama Bear’s Turkey and Veggie Soup, Grizzly Gran’s Famous Pumpkin Pie, and Colorful Christmas Poke Cake.*I received this book for review*
