This post is not really about this specific cook book but I just wanted to pop in and say books like this simply delight me! I found The Geronimo Stilton Cookbook in my local Street Library. It was published in 2005 and this copy is in mint condition. I am not sure kids really engage with the Geronimo Stilton series any more - we have a big shelf of them at Westmead Children's Hospital in our Book Bunker Library but over time we have been reducing our holdings. I just read that there are actually over 300 Geronimo Stilton titles including several spin off series.
I am fairly sure I would not cook any of the recipes in The Geronimo Stilton Cookbook but it is filled with cookery hints and every section ends with a page of jokes. If you have a picky eater in your family the food in this book is presented in fun ways with faces and characters.
Here are some other books like this which I enjoyed collecting for my library and others I wish I had seen. Sadly nearly all of these will be long out of print but you might be lucky and find one or two in your local or school library or at a charity bookfair. If you find others I would love to add more books to this collection - cooking books, craft books, etc.:
