With Claudine's recipes, her father's and her daughter's illustrations, this is a book by a family for your family." <b><i> - Dana Cowin, Editor in Chief, FOOD & WINE</b></i><br><br>"Claudine Pepin came to cooking naturally; her father is the chef and teacher Jacques Pepin. In this concise, elegant cookbook for children--written in English and French, and illustrated by Mr. Pepin--she does not cook down to youngsters. The recipes are simple but serious and go well beyond kid food."<b><i> - The New York Times</b></i><br><br>"I cannot think of anyone more qualified to write a French cookbook for children than Claudine Pepin! A trusted television personality, accomplished cook, seasoned teacher, and dedicated mom, Claudine has spent her entire life learning from and cooking alongside the most renowned chefs in the world. Complete with countless personal stories, beautiful illustrations by her father and her daughter, and timeless recipes developed with her husband, <i>Kids Cook French</i> is an absolute delight for the whole family and a source of inspiration for aspiring chefs of all ages. Bravo!"<b><i> - Gail Simmons, TV host and author of "Talking With My Mouth Full"</b></i><br><br>"If there's one thing I've learned from the French, it's that good cooking is not an end in itself. Rather, it's the crucial thing that brings the family together for a meal at the end of every day--and nothing's more important than that. Claudine Pepin, Jacques's daughter, was schooled in this lesson from birth. Now she is paying it forward. Simply but clearly written, and vivid with illustrations that recall the "Madeleine" books, "Kids Cook French" is seductive. If anyone can tempt kids away from nuggets and pizza, into the kitchen, and on to the dinner table, it's Claudine." <b><i> - Sara Moulton of Sara's Weeknight Meals</b></i><br><br>"My dear friends, Claudine and her father Jacques Pépin, have taught America to love French cooking. Now, with this very special book, these two amazing storytellers have shared their passion for family, fun and good food with a new generation of cooks. Claudine's recipes open a window into the flavors of France, and Jacques' astonishing drawings will inspire children to be hungry for more!"<b><i> - Jose Andres, internationally acclaimed chef, author, educator, and owner of ThinkFoodGroup</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Many of you have watched<b> Claudine Pépin</b> in partnership with her father, world-renown chef, Jacques Pépin, preparing delicious meals and sharing cooking techniques on Public Television.
