Soup is delicious in every season, and this delightful cookbook includes over thirty recipes for fall, winter, spring, and summer soups, as well as related recipes for bread, salads, and snacks. Using tasty ingredients and winning combinations, Chef Gary Goss proves that even beginning chefs can create scrumptious soups Recipes are charmingly named: "You Can't Elope" (a cold cantaloupe soup) or "Sob Soup" (made with onions). Most notably, however, are Dyer's ethereal illustrations that gracefully accompany the recipes, offering images of dancing celery and sunbathing tomatoes that are sure to keep kids engaged while in the kitchen. Blue Moon Soup, originally published fourteen years ago, is a quintessential cookbook--and a beautiful gift book for holidays and birthdays alike Blue Moon Soup is the winner of such awards as the Smithsonian Notable Books for Children, Nappa Award, Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Award, Real Life Award, and Bookbuilders of Boston, as well as the Parents' Choice Award. Explore the joys of cooking with children while enjoying some delicious seasonal soups

Soups that the whole family would enjoy
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I originally check this book out of a library only to find that I would like to make ALL of the recipes. The ingredients in the recipes are items you have on your shelf. They don't strive to reduce fat or salt but instead strive to be healthy tasty soups. We save money by having one soup meal a week and I am thrilled to add this book to my cookbook shelf.
Great recipies for the whole family for the whole year

I just finished reading Blue Moon Soup and was impressed by both the artwork and recipies. Jane has done her usual great job with the illustrations. She found an equally impressive partner with Gary Goss. His creative hand, adds a unique touch to the often simplictisit subject of childrens' cookbooks. He makes the recipies challanging, fun, educational and above all great tasting. I will be using this cookbook with my children all year. I also plan on purchasing several copies as Channukah gifts.
Worth buying for the pictures alone

I had the honor of seeing Jane Dyer's gorgeous pictures while they were still on her drawing board at her home. Now, I display my copy of this book near (though not in due to spills) my kitchen. This amazing book is worth buying for the pictures alone, but I am looking forward to cooking my first batch of soup--"Soup Of The Evening"-- as soon as the themometor dips below 95 degrees. A must have for cooks and Jane Dyer fans!
