 | Fannie in the Kitchen by Deborah Hopkinson, Nancy Carpenter
Although she knows she's not much help in the kitchen, a girl named Marcia is nonetheless miffed when her mother goes so far as to hire a mother's helper to do the family's cooking. However, Marcia agrees with her mother's decision once she tastes the new helper's cooking--everything she makes is wonderful. As Marcia befriends the mother's helper, she is inspired to try out some of her own creations--but nothing she makes can compare to the delectable items prepared by this almost professional cook. The mother's helper observes Marcia's attempts, and is inspired to write down specific recipes and instructions for preparing food--and what results is the first draft of the classic FANNIE FARMER COOKBOOK. This somewhat expanded story is based on historical fact. Pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations accompany the text. Named one of the Best Children's Books 2001 by Publishers Weekly.
