Summary: French Cooking Made Easy
Review: A Little French Cookbook is excellent for those who are overwhelmed by the thought of French cooking.

The recipes are classics, and are easy to follow. For example, the croque-monsieur is an excellent choice for lunch or a quick supper. Tarte Tatin is delicious (this is like an upside down apple pie); we tried this out after tasting in a restaurant while on vacation in Montreal. Another favorite in our house (which includes a French husband) is the salade verte which gives the traditional vinaigrette recipe.

The recipes are prefaced by brief 'historical' descriptions which tell of the recipes' origin.

Summary: A fun little book!
Review: I love the recipes in this book which are simple, and the length does not overwhelm. I especially love looking at the pictures which evoke France.
