A Recipe for Success: Lizzie Kander and her Cookbook celebrates the life of Milwaukee's early twentieth-century culinary wonder. This new addition to the Badger Biographies series will introduce young readers to a remarkable young woman who made a difference in the lives of the early immigrants in Wisconsin. Kander originally created The Settlement Cookbook to assist young Jewish immigrant girls in cooking nutritious "American-style" meals for their families. Since its publication, several generations of household cooks have been raised on the delicious recipes of the cookbook. Proceeds from the sale of the original cookbook helped build Milwaukee's first settlement house and later the city's Jewish Community Center. The century-old cookbook is still in print today. This is a delightful biography, filled with humorous asides, wonderful period illustrations, and of course recipes!

2006 Honorable Mention in the Children/Young Adult Category from Midwest Independent Publishers Association Book Awards
2007 Teacher's Choice in the Children's Books Category from Learning Magazine
 

"First, let me say how fine the manuscript is. It is nicely written, conveys a tremendous amount of information, and weaves beautifully the personal details of LKB's life with the life of the community and the larger narrative of American history. She really comes to life in this piece." (Hasia Diner, The Paul S. Sylvia Steinberg Professor of American Jewish History and the Director of the Goldstein-Goren Center for American Jewish History at NYU)
"What a delight to finally get to know the real Lizzie Kander in A Recipe for Success. Lizzie Kander is my hero — she found other doorways when men closed doors to women, and she told us the secret — it was through their hearts and tummies. Lizzie understood the power of food to nourish, to educate, to calm, to raise money, and to spread love. This powerful Badger Biography tells this story beautifully, and whets our appetites to learn more about the important women in America's past." (Marcie Cohen Ferris, Author of Matzoh Ball Gumbo: Culinary Tales of the Jewish South Associate Director, Carolina Center for Jewish Studies University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill)
