here are the responses that I received:
Little House cookbook
American girls cookbook
Honest pretzels - Katzen (Moosewood)
Fannie in the kitchen - Hopkinson - not a cookbook but about Fannie
Farmer
Judith Corwin's holiday craft books from Watts
Draw, model and paint series from Gareth Stevens
World Craft series from Watts
I like Watts and GS because of the brilliant color photos and step by
step instructions.
The Corwin books are becoming dated but still go out a lot.
And there are a couple of good spiral bound books like Pooh's party
books. Check out the local bookstore.

You may want to try Step by Step Series by Capstone Books with titles such
as Crafts from Salt Dough by Audrey Gessat or Crafts from Junk by Violaine
Lamerand. Capstone Press also has a series called Exploring History through
Simple Recipes like Oregon Trail Cooking by Mary Gunderson.
The Kids Can Press Jumbo Cookbook by Judi Gillies is good.
Easy art fun! : do-it-yourself crafts for beginning readers by Hauser, Jill
Frankel from Williamson Publisher.
good luck!

I like Holidays of the World Cookbook for Students by Lois Sinaido Webb and
the
Multicultural Cookbook for Students by Carol Lisa Albyn both from Oryx Press.
They are
still in the Greenwood Catalogue.
The books are similar and are useful for cooking and country reports.

In the cookery section, The Kids Around the World Cookbook by Deri
Robins is pretty popular, along with Cooking Book by Caroline Green,
Cowboy Cooking by Mary Gunderson, and the series "The Young Chef's
(German/Mexican/whatever) Cookbook".
As far as arts and crafts, they are not connoisseurs, anything with
Crafts for Gifts/Christmas/Valentines/Halloween etc. flies off the
shelves along with How to Draw cats/dogs/horses/cars/trucks/planes etc.
regardless of which series/author they are from.

My students enjoy Emeril's There's a Chef in my Soup!
: Recipes for the Kid in Everyone by Emerril Lagasse
0-688-17706-9 They also enjoy all the American Girl
Cookbooks.
We have whole sets that are Cooking the "Italian" way for all different
ethnic backgrounds. The kids love them and they fit well into the
curriculum. The same for Cooking in "China" series. Then anything that says
for beginners, kids or students. They always have great pictures. I always
like to know what my dish should have looked like. :)
Hope this helps!

Origami books are very popular in my school.
Also how to draw...as in How to draw 50 cats, or 50 horse...

The Mini Page offers a kids' cookbook for under $10. It is a collection of
the recipes (easy) they use in the Mini Page newspaper.
I really loved the Little House on the Prairie cookbook. Someone researched
all the recipes that Laura mentions, added the excerpts from the stories,
added interesting insights (like the forgotten methods or utensils used),
and gave modernized versions of the recipes to cook with today's products.
The most important thing I gleaned from the book was the reason Laura wrote
so lovingly of their mother's cooking - times were hard and there were
times when little or no food was available, so food, good food and good
memories associated with it, were well-treasured. Cooking also took a long
time, involved a lot of preparation and planning, as well as a lot of labor
beforehand (smoking the hams, making the cheese, drying apples for winter,
etc.). Just beating egg whites for a cake was quite a job - you had to do
it with a fork! Maybe that's why pie was "easy" ("Easy as pie") because
making pie dough was easy in comparison to beating egg white. . .
This book was more for the history than preparing the food, but it would be
fun for a unit study on pioneers. There was also a songbook.
The American Girls has a series of cookbooks as well.

This is a hot section in our library! Our kids like drawing books of all
sorts, paper airplane books, project books (card-making, sculpting, clothes
embellishment, friendship bracelets, hair braiding, jewelry making), game
and toy making, ship models, and cartoons (Calvin & Hobbes, Garfield, Snoopy).
Cookbooks are popular with both our boys and girls - (not sure titles are
exactly right, but...) The Sleepover Cookbook, The Boxcar Children
Cookbook, A Biblical Feast, All the Amer. Girl cookbooks, Make and Bake
Amazing Cupcakes, a multicultural cookbook that I can't keep on the shelf
(can't remember title offhand, but it's from the same line that does
activity/recipe books for various timelines - Medieval, Colonial, Ancient
Greece and so on), an authentic Mexican cooking cookbook, The Math Chef, My
First Cookery Book, Little House on the Prairie Cookbook, Anne of Green
Gables Cookbook... our kids love to cook and we also have several classroom
projects that require cooking something and bringing it in to share.
Let me know if you need exact titles for any of these and I'll try to
remember to write them down at work.

My kids really enjoy cookbooks from other countries and they actually
fit some of the curriculum requests from teachers. I have French,
Spanish, German, Mexican, Italian, etc. I think I got them from Lerner.
Be sure to get kids' cookbooks--adult ones are way over their heads.
I used to be a home ec./FACS teacher and in my room I always required
the students to put Saran wrap over the pages when cooking to keep the
books nice. I have written a note with marker in the library cookbooks
to PLEASE cover the pages with waxed paper or plastic wrap when cooking.
Most kids do and so our books stay nice and neat.
