Moon Cookies

We love our library books and last week we got the cutest one that was complete with a recipe! It's called "The Moon Might Be Milk" and it's written by Lisa Shulman and Will Hillenbrand.
Basically it goes through the story of a little girl wondering what the moon is made of. Each animal she talks to says the moon is made of something different: an egg, milk, flour, sugar, butter... it goes on and on. At the end they decide  to ask the little girl's grandmother. When the get to her house on her counter are all of the ingredients the animals have named. They combine them and make Moon Cookies. Love this!
The girls and I sat down and read the book and then rolled up our sleeves and made the recipe together. It was a perfect morning activity that led to a tasty morning snack! I need to find more books like this! Please leave a comment if you know of any!
