Handstand Kids Cookbooks

The Handstand Kids Cookbook is a company that aims to introduce children to different types of food from around the globe, as well as different cultures and language. Aimed at children from 3-12.

The Mexican cookbook also comes with a colourful apron and oven mitt - an incentive for the purchase. The designs are colourful and obviously food related, being patterned with different utensils and food.

Different books come with different items related to the kitchen.

The interior is again colourful and contains a number of child characters. Chunks of text are lessened by friendly, rounded illustrations. The text is rounded and bubbly, though perhaps outdated.
This book is also spiral bound, which seems to be a common occurrence among children cookbooks.

These books are around the higher price range for children's cookbooks- around $15 - $25. This may have something to do with the "free" goodies inside, such as the aprons. The books themselves are fairly simplistic, similar to other children's cookbooks that I have viewed. The added extras - the whisks, aprons etc. - seem to be the selling point, along with the great idea of introducing your children to different cultures.

The same set of characters appear throughout the different cookbooks - and it is interesting to note that they are all of different races. This also encourages children to learn of different cultures.
