How many times have you picked up a fruit or vegetable and laughed at how much it resembles an animal or person? Play with Your Food shows you how to look at something ordinary and turn it into something magical. No special tools or techniques are needed, just you -- and your child's -- imagination.

4.0 out of 5 stars A fun book at a reasonable price.
Reviewed in the United States on July 22, 1998
This is an enjoyable and fun book whether you only look at it or you actually prepare some of your own "play" food. Especially good for children, the ill, those who need to be encouraged to eat, or someone who is just feeling a bit down.

This is one of the most delightful and imaginative books I've ever seen. It changes how you look at food. After reading it, I look at the shapes of vegetables and fruits to see what could possibly be disguised there.
