My thoughts:

The best kid's snack book by far.  Since there are over two hundred snack recipes, there is something every should like in this book. Great book for kids parties.

the  step by step directions are so simple to read and understand, even your kids can help with reading and understanding them.  Just about every ingredient needed for these snacks can be bought in your local grocery store.  There are also colorful pictures of what some of the healthy snacks will look like.  There is even a chapter on mini meals.  So this takes the place of fast foods, and is one hundred percent healthier.  There are eight different chapter of all of good healthy snacks, mini meals, fruit and veggie snacks, no-bake bites and dips, baked bites, re-imagined classics, super smoothies and drinks and frozen delights and special treats.

The Feedback chart in the back of the book is great.  Gives kids and adults a chance to rate the snacks, etc up to five starts.  They get to write the date it was made, put notes about the snack and answer yes or no if they would make it again.

I have made over five of these snacks in this book with my eleven and eight year old, and they loved everyone of them.  We made Fresh Fruit Toaster Pastries, Strawberry Shortcakes and Oatmeal Raisin Cookie dough Bites to name a few.  We plan on making many more recipes from this book.
