Hungry toddlers will be heading for the kitchen thanks to the appetizing and high-engagement board book Spaghetti!, the fifth in the My First Cookbooks series. With clean lines and a bold color palette, Lotta Nieminen's mixed-media artwork details the step-by-step preparation of four servings of pasta with a garlicky marinara sauce. Straightforward text alongside labeled cooking tools and ingredients clarifies quantities, provides cooking instructions, and offers helpful tips to build culinary literacy: "If [the spaghetti is] slightly soft and chewy, it is ready." Thick pages nestle sturdy interactive elements including sliding tabs, a flap, and a brilliantly designed final page that invites readers to twirl their finished plate of spaghetti using a fork removed from the spread prior. A cookbook sure to earn rave reviews among discerning high-chair critics. --Kit Ballenger, youth librarian, Help Your Shelf
