And if you follow directions exactly, you are sure to arrive at your destination--proud and pleased to be able to cook many good things for your family and friends. Twenty-five girls and boys, just your age, selected and tested all the recipes and food ideas that you find in this book. From ice cream sodas to Pizzaburgers, from Animal Pancakes to Mad Hatter Meatballs, here are all of the foods they liked best to prepare and to eat. We hope that you will have a wonderful time with this book--making treats for snacks and parties, beautiful cakes for birthdays, and sometimes even surprising Mother and Dad by cooking supper all by yourself! Good luck and happy cooking, Betty Crocker."
