Fairy Tale Dinners: A Cookbook for Young Readers and Eaters

by Jane Yolen

Overview

After a day spent slaying ogres and swimming like mermaids, the average young adventurer is a bit peckish. The delightful fairy tales in this collection are coupled with nutritious and satisfying dinners and side dishes. Jack’s Magic Party Beans will not produce an enormous bean stalk, but the dish is undeniably magical in taste. Other stories include the Turkish tale “Hodja Borrows a Pot” and the Russian classic “The Great Turnip.” Fascinating facts about each story’s origins and the history of the dishes will fill the mind with wonder and the tummy with delightful nourishment.
