3-12-00 Question 14
Dear Preschool Teacher,
A few years ago, I attended a workshop which was a
hands on learning experience that introduced simple "cooking"
projects. Among the experiences I recall were edible dandelions
made from nilla wafers and coconuts. I also remember a butterfly
made of celery, peanut butter, etc.. Each of these stories had a
link to a children's book. I remember The Very Hungry Caterpillar was
the link for the butterfly.
I am trying to find the title of the book that was used
at this workshop and I am hoping that maybe you will be able to
help me with that. I would also like to know the author as well,
or ISBN #.
Please let me know if you are familiar with this resource book
in question and maybe would be able to also give me a contact to buy my
own copy.
Thanks

Dear Desperately seeking
cookbook,
Our staff has found many book suggestions for you. I
am not sure that they are the exact one you are looking for. The one you
are looking for could be out of print. The book that have that seems to
be close is Book Cooks, by Creative Teaching press. It is available at
the Preschool
Education, Education Vstore. I got mine only a few weeks ago. It
has many books in it, one being The very hungry Caterpillar. And
you make a butterfly from celery, pretzels, and cream chess. I do
not see a dandelion though.
There are also a few suggestions below form the "Ask
the Preschool Teacher" staff that may help as well.

Dear Desperately
seeking cookbook,
A book I have used is titled Food for Thought - Literature Based Thematic
Units. It is by Natalie Hill. The publisher is Carson-Dellosa.
I could not find an ISBN#. It should be in a Teacher Supply/Book
Store.
Good luck, hope it helps!
