Celia and Cedric are
on another adventure. This time a little green dragon is chasing them about
from here to there. Celia’s mother calls them in to take a break and make a
yummy snack to revive them from all their exertion after running from the
dragon.
The two children
make a power smoothie filled with healthy food choices such as bananas and
frozen mangos. Super foods such as chia seeds can be added. For the liquid
water, coconut, almond or other milk of your choice can be used. The special
ingredient for this smoothie is romaine lettuce or spinach. This gives the
drink a beautiful green colour.
Celia and Cedric
pretend that the drink is the little green dragon….
I liked this story
and the recipe because they are tied together and can help children further
their imaginations. I did not test the recipe in this book but the other
recipes that I have tested by these authors have been excellent, so I have no
doubt that this one will be just as tasty and easy for youngsters to make with
a little parent supervision.
The pictures in the
book are bright and clear and the dragon can be found on each page hiding
behind something, so for very young children if you are reading the book to
them, they will enjoy searching the page for the dragon.
I think young
children will enjoy this book and all children will enjoy the healthy snack. I
gave this book 5 stars out of 5.
Thank you to the
author for providing a copy of this book in exchange for a fair and honest
review. A positive opinion was not required. All thoughts are my own.
