Summary: Great for you Justin!-now you can afford an Editor
Review: After our kids saw Chef Justin on David Letterman and Rosie O'donnel they forced out to order the book and we have never regretted it. Little Joey checked the mail everyday until it cam in and when it did all three children worked with other deciding what they would cook together for the family. Helen Marie prepared all the pots, Jeanette set up all the recipe's food preparation and Little Joey mixed all together. Now on every birthday, holiday and special cookouts our kids cook for us the parents and their sisters and brother instead of paying for gifts. Each meal is wonderful and easy just like Chef Justin does it. Everybody feels like something special because everybody workd together and enjoys it the same time. A great gift for any family and a better family planner of activies than any video, computer game or music concert. You won't regret having this book influence your children to work together and enjoy a meal or dessert together. Lancaster, PA

Summary: GREAT! Not just for kids, but for anyone who can't cook!
Review: Although this book seems to be geared toward kids, it is also a great tool for newlyweds and those who just aren't real good in the kitchen. The book includes great recipes for chicken, pork chops, sausage and of course my kids favorite- desserts. This book was written with the hopes of bringing children and their parents or grandparents closer together. By spending quality time together, having fun and being able to eat the finished product. There's also knock-knock jokes and a level of difficulty. Parents are encouraged to let kids help as much as they want to. When they make a mess, assure them that everyone does, but if you make a mess you have to help clean it up. It's also a good idea to let the kids help out with the dishes. Make it a game, make it fun, tell knock-knock jokes to help pass the time. It's truly amazing how much we can learn about each other just spending a half hour or an hour of quality time in the kitchen. In this hectic world where it takes 2-incomes to keep a family going, let's not forget how important our family is. We all get aggrevated and have a tendency to take frustrations out on our loved ones. Why not relax, spend some quality time and get to know your family? After all, we DO have to eat, so cooking and breaking bread is the perfect time to get together. 2-words HAVE FUN!! Thanks to Amazon for listing my son's book "COOKING WITH JUSTIN" and Thanks to YOU for purchasing it. I sincerely hope you enjoy it! Jimi Miller

Summary: Cooking With Chef Justin taught our children responsibilty.
Review: My significant other purchased this book on a lark and we are amazed at the reaction of our children. Our youngest better known as BJ, actually took cooking classes after making several of the recipes in Chef Justin's book. Brandi, our other child used it as a cooking competition for a slumber party weekend and presented awards for the best meal from this book. Now our children are actually cooking almost twice a week and gaining valuable discipline, responsibility and knowledge. What a bright idea from an obivious bright young man in the name of Chef Justin Miller. I never thought us Texans would learn from a Pennsylvanian but we were wrong, they are not just learning but having a great time because of this super book for kids!!!

Review: We were quite impressed with the chef and his parents for encouraging Justin-way to go!! For the next book, I would suggest a cookbook editor to proof the recipes...of course there is no substitute for parental suppervision-but some parents are non-cooks and wouldn't catch things like 'blend all' directions when making French Toast! We did, but I felt sorry for the others...
