Reach for this book when your child is in a silly, high-energy mood or when you want to encourage the idea that there are no wrong answers in creative play. It is perfect for those afternoons when the kitchen has become a laboratory of imagination and you want to validate the messy, experimental side of childhood. The story follows a group of animal friends who set out to make a meal, leading to a sequence of absurd culinary choices and physical comedy. While the title might sound slightly alarming to modern sensibilities, the book is a lighthearted, nonsensical romp that focuses on the joy of collaboration and the humor found in 'too many cooks' scenarios. It is an ideal pick for preschoolers and early elementary students who are beginning to appreciate slapstick humor and wordplay.
