My Comments:
This one is a keeper.  The recipes I've tried (three of them) are tasty.  All have been reasonably easy to prepare and the time involved has pretty much been as noted in the book.  There are a lot of kid-friendly recipes using thing that I either generally have in the house or which my husband can easily find at the grocery store.  None of these are recipes that will dirty every dish in the kitchen.  The authors have previously written freezer cooking cookbooks and this shows in what there are some freezer-friendly treats in this book that include directions for making large quantities as wells as proper freezing techniques.   In short, this is a real cookbook for real moms cooking for real families.  Grade:  A

Tour Special:  
As I noted, I have made three different recipes from this book.  I'm going to post about them on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, letting you know what they are, how they were received at my house and how easy they were to make.  I also have pictures.  The publisher has given me permission to reprint only one recipe so I'm going to let you, my readers, decide which recipe, of the three I made, will be published.  A comment is a vote.
