Who but Roald Dahl could think up such mouthwatering and deliciously disgusting foods as Lickable Wallpaper, Stink Bugs Eggs, and Eatable Pillows? Now there's a practical guide to making these and other delicacies. Roald Dahl’s Revolting Recipes is a tasteful and delightful children’s cookbook that has spunk to it. Kids will love cooking these “revolting” dishes. All of the instructions are very clear and easy to follow, as well as the ingredients lists. Dahl and illustrator Quentin Blake remained consistent with the layout of the pages all the way through. This would be a great book to have in your personal kitchen, to pull out when the kids want to help with dinner. This book could also work well in the classroom. Reading a book to children is great, but doing what the book does is better! A lot of the recipes involve an oven, and other appliances and tools that aren't kid-friendly. However the kids can still be involved! They can help measure the ingredients (great math lesson), or they could mix the ingredients together, or even do the steps with the cooked ingredients after they are heated. The illustrations in this book are very creative! They are drawn in such a way that looks inviting yet revolting at the same time. This book would also tie in well in a unit with other books by Dahl, such as Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The 31 recipes are from 11 of Dahl's children books. The recipes are based on the foods that Dahl's children's book characters have eaten. For instance, the dish "Snozzcumbers" comes from the book The BFG, "Wormy Spaghetti" is from The Twits, and "Lickable Wallpaper" comes from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The dishes sound worse than they really are. For instance, Stink Bug Eggs are really deviled eggs with a touch of food coloring and parmesean cheese to add to the smell.Mr. Twit's Beard Food is just mashed potatoes, hard-boiled eggs, mushrooms, and cocktail franks that have been arranged in a deceitful fashion. Some other recipes include "Scrambled Dregs" and "Fresh Mudburger". The illustrations are deliciously interesting and playful due to Blake's famous drawings along with Baldwin's food photography. For instance, animated characters in pajamas sleeping on a silhouetted photo of "Eatable Marshmallow PIllows." Although the book is filled with graphics geared at children, some of the recipes are too difficult for the intended audience; the recipes need adult supervision. However, the attraction to the book is Blake's wonderful drawings in addition to Jan Baldwin's unique photos of food. Described by Dahl's wife, Felicity, as "an interpretation of some of the scrumptious and wonderfully disgusting dishes that appear in Roald's books," this collection features 31 recipes. Possibilities include "Lickable Wallpaper" from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, "Snozzcumbers" from The BFG, and "Hot Frogs" from James and the Giant Peach. Illustrations by Quentin Blake accompany each recipe. Photographs of finished dishes often appear in collage with Blake's illustrations. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
