On cuteness scale from one to ten this book and the recipes get a 12! Cute! Cute! Cute! But it doesn’t stop there. This cookbook is a treasure trove of yummy Lilliputian recipes. Their size makes them even more of a delight. Everyone wants to cut back on eating sweets but face it, the craving is still there. When we go to have a “serving” it is more than we need plus we usually have the tendency to super-size it or go back for seconds. With these mini desserts you can go back for thirds and be okay! They are just enough to satisfy hankering for something luscious.
Recipes include muffins, cakes, yeast rolls, yippe pies instead of whoopee pies, cupcakes, brownies, pies, donuts, and some extra special ones in the “Fancy Stuff” chapter that will surprise you. There is also a section with frosting, fillings, toppings and drizzles for your masterpieces!
Muffins are made in mini muffin pans of course but the instructions to use a one inch cookie scoop made me chuckle. A recipe of 2o or 24 servings is all baked in a 9 inch pan. Cakes are baked in mini Bundt pans. You get the idea of the scale.
Even more than the tininess of the recipes, I was impressed with how good they were! The variety is amazing!
My mind ran with idea in ways to enjoy this book. You could make several different recipes for a ladies meeting and every one get a plate full of the small goodies. I know they would delight children, and what about a little girl’s tea party. I can also see making a variety of recipes and give in a special box as a gift for Christmas, birthday or any special occasion!
I received this book from Ulysses Press in exchange for an honest review. The opinions I have stated are my own.

To be honest, when I saw the adult coloring books come out I was elated! Now I didn’t have to hide that I still enjoyed coloring as a grown-up. This book takes it up a notch!!! Another great childhood pleasure made available to adults and with challenges equal to our abilities.
I found it a stress reliever just like the coloring books, but with the bonus my concentration was heightened therefore engaging my mind even more. Not only was it fun to do, but I never knew for sure what my picture would become once all the numbers were connected. It was always a surprise especially how intricate they were. I counted approximately 43 pictures, a nice number to keep me busy for a while!
The book is printed on thick quality paper so if my attention to my work leads to a little too much pencil pressure on the picture, the paper didn’t tear. After I was finished with my masterpiece, I could then color it for a little more relaxation. Yes the numbers were small, but I did fine with my dollar store glasses. The book is small enough I can easily take it with me while waiting and pass the time.
I enjoyed this book and highly recommend it to others, who enjoy challenges and would like something different,

Boy was I surprised when I received this book! It was so more than I was anticipating. I was expecting a smaller book (and there’s nothing wrong with that) but this one is 8” x 10”! This storybook is for snugging in a chair with your little one in your lap and your arms around them as you hold the book. Love it!
The stories are literally short enough to be read in 5 minutes; minus my sound effects of course! With each page having just a few lines, it is just right for young attention spans. It is my opinion with the large bright colored pages your little one will want to linger over the pages after you finish reading. This part impressed me. Every of page is filled with vivid colors of their favorite Veggie Tales characters and scenes depicting the story.
Just as with the Veggie Tales videos, each story is humorous, fun and always shares a special message about biblical truths especially for children. These zany vegetables have become a beloved tradition among Christian parents and children. A quality book not on in construction and materials but also in content. I cannot wait to share it with my grandson and even in my Sunday school class.
