Author Robbie Cheadle Has A Delicious Holiday Gift!
I have shared the great books of Robbie Cheadle before, but I haven’t told you about her terrific books with recipes that she writes with her son!
These terrific books tell magical stories AND include recipes that you can make with your children!
Sir Chocolate and the Fondant Five Story and Cookbook
Number 6 in the “Sir Chocolate” series is now out, and it’s the prefect holiday gift.
Five zoo animals go missing and Sir Chocolate needs to find them. This lyrical story is told as a poem, and the book also includes five new recipes you can make.
Here’s a short excerpt:
“One day Sir Chocolate arrived, and not a sound could hear, he called long and loud, but no animals did appear. The animals had vanished, the zoo was empty and still,”
“The monkey is naughty, he likes to have fun, he plays tricks on the others, then away he does run.”
Cheadle wrote the books with her son Michael, and each book tells a beautiful story and includes terrific recipes you can make with your kids! Here are the other five in the series:
Here is more about Robbie and all of the books – this post from the Author’s own website includes a great video on how to make some of the recipes in the book:

These are perfect holiday gifts – and if you want something for grownups, Robbie also published a memoir with her Mom, who describes growing up in wartime England:

Robbie also publishes young adult supernatural fiction, singer more “adult” sounding name Roberta Eaton Cheadle:
This is a spooky tale – click here to get a sneak peek:
Finally, Robbie just yesterday revealed that she is part of a brand new Anthology that is now available on Amazon:
Here is a link to her post about this new work!
Bravo Robbie on all of your great published work!

It’s nice to visit you via Robbie’s blog, John. I got a kick out of the “and bacon” part of your profile. Although my characters, Deme and Honeybell might be upset… 😉
Anyhow, I couldn’t agree more about Robbie’s work. Deliciously inspiring. Hugs on the wing!

Thank you for the comment and for following! I have a “reputation” for bacon, if only because I find it endlessly entertaining, and had a bacon iPhone cover at one point – with no disrespect to your characters, who I am eager to get to know!
