The Help Yourself Cookbook for Kids by Ruby Roth is a vegan cookbook for kids that has simple recipes for drinks, small snacks and small desserts. I made the Choco Balls with the optional ingredients and since we didn't have any almond butter, we used peanut butter instead. I had the Choco Balls in the freezer for about eight minutes. They tasted just like chocolate and I hope to make lots more of these recipes.
Matilda by Roald Dahl is a book about a little girl who is very smart. Her parents don't realize how special she is and simply don't care about her at all. The only things they care about are television and their only son. Matilda soon teaches herself how to read and borrows books from the library. Soon she manages to read all the books in the kids section and starts to read the books in the adult section. Finally, one day at last, Matilda goes to a school, but with a horrible principal. Her name was Miss Trunchbull. Matilda is much smarter than all the kids in her kindergarten class and Matilda's teacher, Miss Honey, tries to convince Miss Trunchbull to move Matilda to the seventh grade class but still says no. Miss Trunchbull always goes with the worst of punishments for the kids at the school.
