Reviewed by Fiona Hamilton-Fairley, principal and chief executive of the Kids' Cookery School
I think this book is a really important resource for professional carers.
The value of cooking is very close to my heart, and teaching the curriculum through practical cookery is paramount for our children, if they are to learn this vital life skill.
The first two chapters provide the knowledge and nutritional information needed to ensure that a child maintains a well balanced diet. There are charts, diagrams and pictures to help you to understand the food groups and quantities that are required daily.
