I reckon this book is aimed more at getting diabetic kids to cook than at cooking for diabetic kids. Since my son (newly diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes) is just 4, he won’t be doing to main part of the cooking any time soon.
There were no photos of the recipes, and the format (A-Z recipes for each section) was distracting and annoying. The font used in the titles was jarring, and to top it all off, I didn’t see one recipe I really sought after to try.
I returned this book. There are better ones out there.

Very cute cookbook, a bit over my child’s head and ability, but he’s young. There are bounty of fun recipes to choose from, but be forewarned, bounty of artificial sweeteners and processed food. Fun, but not whole food, if that is what you’re used to.

In “Cooking Up Fun for Kids with Diabetes” the authors dedicate the first two chapters to providing a basic understanding of diabetes. The first chapter discusses diabetes with a slant toward helping a child know it. The second one is from the perspective of what the adult mother needs to know.
The book contains simple recipes rated on a one, two, or three hand system with one being the simplest and three being the toughest. Each recipe provides in rank on serving size, exchanges, calories, saturated stout, cholesterol, sodium, fiber, protein, and carbohydrates. Some are just simple recipes that a child can do; others have been adapted to make it more fun for children. For example, an run of the mill grilled cheese sandwich becomes a toasted cheese person.
“Cooking Up Fun for Kids with Diabetes” is a fun book of recipes and food correlated crafts for any child and a not compulsory read.

I was delighted to read about this cookbook in my local newspaper and ran out to buy a copy aptly away. My eleven year ancient daughter was recently diagnosed with diabetes, so this book about nutrition/healthy cooking is an resolution to my prayers. In addition to the fun and fantastic-tasting recipes with complete nutrition in rank, there are clear explanations about the type 1 and type 2 diabetes conditions and even some fun “non-food” projects. My daughter and I spent a weekend afternoon in the kitchen making Fruit Filled Quesadillas- messy, but fun!
