Caroline Craig, Joe Archer Press Reviews

'It's a lovely book: a beautifully-presented hardback which will stand a lot of use and there's even a useful glossary and efficient index.' - Sue Magee, The Bookbag

'For inspiration in the garden and the kitchen ... a how-to guide to growing and eating your own fruit and vegetables' - Daily Express

'A brilliant, brilliant cookbook full of imagination and packed with delicious info on both the growing and the cooking side of things. What better way to stimulate an interest in food than to really follow the whole process from start to finish. Utterly rewarding, and completely engaging!' - Phil May, Read it Daddy

'The Kew Gardens Children's Cookbook' caught our Editors attention with its colourful cover and promise of easy step-by-step gardening advice for kids-and they weren't disappointed!... Expect scrumptious and fresh recipe ideas such as runner bean and bacon spaghetti or borlotti bean burgers (not to mention a whole section on health and nutrition).' - Elizabeth Ryan, Wayfair

'Wonderfully illustrated and complemented by panels on minibeasts and other garden creatures, it shows how nature works to help plants grow. The growing guide also includes advice on cooking tools and utensils and healthy and balanced diets. From plot to plate, what's not to like about that?' - Welsh Border Life

'Young readers stand to gain much more than recipe ideas from this kitchen-garden cookbook, which encourages even those whose garden might only be a window box to get planting, growing, cooking and eating their own food' - Evening Echo (Cork)

'Colourful and beautifully illustrated, it is a great aid for fostering a love and understanding of fresh produce and an awareness of a healthy diet - essentials in an age when fast food and child obesity are on the rise' - The Lady

'This book is a fabulous, fun way to educate children and parents, dressing up important subjects and issues in an easy to absorb way ... A must-have on any bookshelf' - Wealden Times

'This book is beautiful ... the description of when to grow each vegetable with step by step instructions is perfect for sharing with children ... The recipes are different from your average children's cookbook ... In a time when some children do not really know where their food comes from, this is perfect for the classroom ... With its beautiful front cover and informative introduction it is a lovely book for children to help develop a love of growing and eating fresh vegetables' - School Librarian

'A wonderful addition to any foodie household!' - Inis

'If your small child is even vaguely interested in helping you in the garden, or on the allotment, then I'd urge you to get him/her this great book.' - Judy Bown, Dig my Veg
