If as a child you devoured Enid Blyton's classics like the Famous Five or Malory Towers, or loved to lose yourself in the adventures of Pippi Longstocking or What Katy Did, then CHERRY CAKE AND GINGER... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Not just a wonderful collection of recipes that children will love to help you cook, but a nostalgic wander through the best loved books of our childhoods - Little House on the Prairie, Anne of Green Gables, Little Women and so many others. I loved Jane Brocket's last book The Gentle Art of Domesticity, and in this new (very different!) book she matches her talent for cooking with her interest in childrens literature. Alongside extracts from literary classics and the original illustrations, she comes up with her versions of the food the children would have been eating: picnics, high teas, camp-fires, breakfasts, midnight feasts and makeshift adventure meals. My 9 year old - an obsessive Enid Blyton fan - can't get enough of the Famous 5 recipes. What's more, the recipes really work. Her rice pudding is better than Nigella's.
