A Is for Artichoke: A Foodie Alphabet from Artichoke to Zest

This book is adorable. As a mama who loves to cook, bake, and basically anything that has to do with the kitchen I love this foodie alphabet book. The alphabet letters correspond to different foods, ways of preparing food, etc. For example A is for Artichoke (snippet about artichokes) and B is for Brine (snippet about brining-- from how to do it to why it is done). A little advanced for my tiny tot, however, I see this as being very useful down the line-- especially since she is showing a propensity towards the kitchen & cooking.I would absolutely recommend this for any kid who likes to cook, or any parent who wants to try to get their kid to like to cook.

I got this board book in my infant book box, other than being a board book, it is no way age appropriate. While the concept is great, there is a ton of text and words that no kid is going to understand until their at least starting school, even as an adult I'm even learning new things. So it's weird that it's an alphabet board book when the things it's trying to teach you letters with are much more complicated than the alphabet. So this book is going to be sitting on the shelf for years before my kid understands any of the things it says. And very annoyingly watermelon is under X because it can technically be called a Xigua....like really? That's just a really annoying thing to have to try to explain to a kid just because the author felt like being overly clever...

As a foodie i love this alphabet book for my kiddos. I also love how there is sort of 3 reading levels. For example im making this up. Level 1 A is for apple level 2 apples come in many varieties. Level 3 apple varieties range in taste and color. Some and tart and hold up better for baking while others are meant to crisp for snaking. You can read as in depth as ypu want per page.

Love this book and little one does too! It’s a unique take on ABCs that allows little one to also learn about some of the everyday things mom does in the kitchen, like caramelizing onions. Highly recommend this book for people who love to cook/eat/enjoy food and the little people in their lives.

The vocabulary is way to complex for a child. B is for "brine" ... what kid is entertained by that?
