Spotlight customer reviews:
- Customer Rating:
- Summary: Great purchase.
- Comment: There are so many great interesting ideas. Perhaps not all are great for children but we also use the ideas for our lunches as well. Some are very easy while others are a bit more involved. I need to get back to this book so that we have more interesting lunches instead of doing the mundane cold cuts.
- Customer Rating:
- Summary: Chicken, Mayo and Tortillas
- Comment: I was really excited to get this book based on the reviews I read about it. I like the size of the book and the fact that it is hardbound. There are pictures for some of the recipes, but not all. I would like to see more pictures for every recipe. The intro to the book is really good because it talks about what kinds of foods should be in a lunch and how to pack the lunch to maintain food safety etc. There is a lot of useful information there. Plus, there are little tips throughout the book. The reason why I gave it 3 stars is because it does have a lot of recipes with chicken, mayo and tortillas. It would have been nice to see more variety. Like the title of the book, not all of these recipes are for a lunch box. In addition to chicken there is a lot of tuna. Once I swap out the tuna for chicken, this will be a chicken cookbook. This book is not what I thought it would be, but maybe once I start making some of the recipes I will like it better? I will most likely keep the book.

- Summary: Worth the money
- Comment: I figured if I got one more thing to pack in my picky 7 year old's lunch box, this would be worth it. We achieved that goal and he is interested in trying a few other things. Good pictures. Worth it.

- Summary: Lots of great ideas!
- Comment: After packing my daughter's lunch everyday for the past few years, I'd run out of ideas for making her lunches interesting. This book has lots and lots of great ideas. I highly recommend it. Note to Author/Publisher: Please consider a kindle edition of your book.

- Summary: I love this book, so creative and great for introducing new foods!
- Comment: I love all of Annabel Karmel's books, but this is one of my favorites. I am terrible at ideas beyond "mac and cheese" and "peanut butter and jelly" for my kids. She's actually opened up the creativity in me, so that I can start to make up my own foods as well as following her recipes! Yesterday my daughter had a sunflower seed butter, apple, and cucumber sandwich, fruit and cucumber salad, and pretzels with cream cheese for lunch - all things I never would have considered before this book! Not only are the recipes fantastic, but they make me think of new, innovative ways to get my kids to eat healthy. Highly recommend this book!
