Great product! Every year Grandmother invited a guest for Thanksgiving dinner and allowed Maggie to do the same. "Ask someone poor or lonely," she always said. Thanksgiving was Grandmother's favorite day of the year. The cooking was done and her famous cranberry bread was cooling on a wooden board. But she wasn't happy to find out Maggie had invited the unsavory Mr. Whiskers to dinner. Would her secret cranberry bread recipe be safe with him in the house? After a long absence this delightful 1971 classic is back. So is Grandmother's secret recipe!
Such a cute book. The pictures are beautiful and the story is entertaining. I found myself chuckling at some of the scenarios. My 3 year old enjoyed it but I think his favorite part was making the recipe at the end. Already ordered a couple more books by this author
