This is a fun cookbook to read. It is packed with historical information and simple basic recipes that girls age 6-12 can fix for their families. I think the American Girl series is great because it promotes girls as girls---not as some media based sexual objects or unrealistic body shapes. I have enjoyed reading all of the historical American Girl doll series of books. They are well written and appeal to girls in the age range of 7-12.
Perfect addition to my granddaughter' s American Grl collection.

My daughter and I got this book to add to her american girl book collection, and have had so much fun reading all the trivia from molly's time period/era. The recipes are easy to read, with everyday ingredients and a fun way for parent and child to cook together and have a history lesson!
I liked this cookbook a lot. Since butter and sugar were rationed during WWII, most of the recipes had very little sugar and butter, so they were nutritious. The background on the food in the time period of WWII was great! The book was a great glimpse into life in the 1940s.
Shipping was kinda slow on this. These vintage recipes are awesome and there are little pictures in the book to help you learn about the time period. I loved these past times as a girl and this is one of the few I didnt have.
