New York City-based sisters Esme, an aspiring chef in middle school, and Calista, a high school graduate and photographer, team up for a collection of accessible recipes that include breakfast pancakes, apple pie, and hummus. Calista-s bright photographs accompany the recipes, each of which is warmly described by Esme, who also provides personal reflections and tips: -Breading the chicken and cooking it in a skillet gives it a nice, crispy texture that we all love.- Washburn advocates for additions or substitutions (her recipe for roasted vegetables suggests broccoli, asparagus, carrots, or brussels sprouts), enabling readers to develop a sense for the joy of kitchen improvisation. Ages 10-14. (Apr.)
