OrlandoSentinel.com: In The Kitchen has an article on the popularity of cookbooks for kids. Both Emeril and Nickelodeon have cookbooks out for children. This is definitely something that a library can be focusing on that will benefit the collection and also offer display and programming ideas as well.

I’m working on a bibliography of books based on classic children’s books, which includes a number of cookbooks. It’s not ready yet but you can preview it in messy form at http://www.windowsill.net/basedon.html, if you like.
This is such a neat site, by the way; I’m really enjoying it.

A few years ago, one of my 4th grade students asked me to help her find some cookbooks.She confided that her mother had been diagnosed with cancer and that “as the oldest” she was going to have to help out with the cooking when her mom “wasn’t feeling to well.” The importance of having up to date and colorful cookbooks for kids in my collection came home that day.
