I'm trying to teach my 7 year old the basics of cooking. So far we've made the soft pretzels and the brownies from this book. My daughter was able to read through the ingredients and the instructions fairly easily, and the step by step instructions are good. The actual recipes are not complicated and they taste really good. However, the brownie frosting was a bit too difficult for her. It took me three batches to get it to come out right. Cooking the butter with the buttermilk and cocoa was the issue. By this time, my daughter had lost interest. We probably should have picked something a little easier for our second try. My other comment about the book is that the illustrations of each food are cartoon drawings, not an actual picture. I would have prefered actual pictures for her to look through to find something that she might like.
