In a follow up to my review of Japanese-language speed bento and freezing books on my bookshelf, I put together my thoughts on some children’s bento cookbooks that I have. Some are focused on simple lunches, others more on decorative food art with garnishing tips. All are trade paperback “Mooks” (magazine books), usually with multiple color photos on every page. I’ve indicated which books might be informative even without understanding Japanese, and will follow up with a review of my general bento books.
