Hungry? is is a new cook book from Innocent, published by 4th Estate. It's aimed at families with children with recipes, by Anna Jones, that are nutritious and easy to make. The design is full of quirky features with the aim of getting everyone, including children, involved and excited about food. The recipes themselves are laid out very simply and clearly and are very user friendly and are placed next to photographs by Clare Shilland that show, in most cases, how the dishes turn out. Elsewhere there are charts, designed in various graphic styles, that reveal how to spot a bad egg; tips on making pesto; how to choose cuts of meat; and when to eat seasonal foods. Other quirks include a '10 Commandments of Washing Up' tea towel that comes with the book, and a pocket at the back for storing recipe cuttings etc (although with typical Innocent faux-naïveté, they suggest storing 'Torn-out recipes, passports and secret documents' because 'burglars never steal recipe books').
