About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is eager to help in the kitchen or is curious about how the things they eat are made. It is the perfect tool for a toddler or preschooler who is beginning to take pride in 'doing it myself' and needs a gentle introduction to the concepts of patience and sequential steps. Through bright, high-contrast illustrations, the story follows Mr. Baker as he mixes, rolls, cuts, and bakes his famous treats. It highlights the joy of productive work and the social reward of sharing the fruits of your labor with friends. The inclusion of a real cookie recipe at the end makes this a wonderful bridge from storytime to a hands-on kitchen activity, reinforcing the feeling of accomplishment that comes with finishing a job well done.
