La cuisine est un jeu d’enfants by Michel Oliver [1963] was an impromptu gift from my good friends, Erik and Jessica. Whenever they have us over for dinner, they always share their recent book finds. This one didn't fit in their shelf, so they gave it to me -- nice.


it is a delightful present.
beautiful drawing!
