I really enjoyed reading this book to my kids. I feel it can really help them understand sensitive and difficult to grasp issues... issues like love and acceptance of others who are different... issues like racial hatred. It was extremely well written and well illustrated. A keeper!

We just love this book! I'd recommend this book in a heartbeat! Its a little long for my 22 month old daughter, but my 3 and 1/2 year old son just loves it. Its a great story with lots of warm fuzzies that teaches a deeper, more important meaning of Easter without any religious overtones. Grade: A+

With gorgeous photos and well tested recipes, California Cooking is the most important and thoroughly reliable cookbook for a modern home chef. Especially one interested in the vast variety of California and the freshness of California cuisine.
Each chapter begins by describing the mystery of a unique California region, then provides a creative menu suitable to the region's aura and lifestyle and finally gives every recipe needed to serve the complete menu with suggestions for beverages.
In the 5 years that I have used this book, it has never failed to give me dinner parties with "WOW". Each recipe is natural, fresh, interesting and uncomplicated. Each menu well planned with photos to show how to beautifully serve and garnish. It is a visual and practical gem.

Selected by Brandon & Hill (Nursing Outlook, March-April, 1996) as one of best books for small nursing and medical libraries.

More Patti Page's "Old Cape Cod" than a collection of recipes, The Cape Cod Wampanoag Cookbook is a wonderful concoction of good reading and favorite meals simplified. Essays are interspersed with mouth-watering and heart-warming dinners, soups, chowders, and breads. A history of the cranberry bogs winds its way through one chapter, carefully following the transition from a time when native children crawled on hands and knees to pick cranberries by hand to the modern method of wet harvesting the bogs. A childhood spent as an Indian guide for hunting and fishing expeditions is well documented in charming narratives spinkled through the book. Earl Mills' voice comes throgh in stories which are divided according to the four seasons, telling readers how his people lived according to the land.
The owner and cook of a popular Cape Cod restaurant for close to thirty years, Mills is Chief Flying Eagle of the Mashpee Wampanoags and former athletic director of the Falmouth , MA public schools. Breen, who has captured his spirit as well as a native respect for Mother Earth, has also captured Cape Cod at its best. Her thoughts on Thanksgiving are worth the price of this little gem of a book.
I read the book cover to cover and then bought it for every one on my Christmas list. Readers, eaters and cooks alike will cherish this delightful gem!

The Captain's Garden: a Reflective Journey Home Through the Art of Paul Landry is a delicious carmel apple of a book. Each page is filled with the rich, sweet colors and visions of the people, gardens and seaside cottages of the North Atlantic coast. The tart, juicy text tells of rose-covered arbors, brick ovens, berry picking and sails of fishing boats. Landry's use of color and light are extraordinary. Landry works primarily in oil, but with a light touch that resembles water color. This book is a feast for all the senses and a delightful treat

The photographs and the recipes in this cookbook make me feel as if I'm back in the Caribbean. Easy and delicious, these recipes combine the diverse flavours and cultures of the islands, European, East Indian, African, Asian and Latin American. It's a beautiful book and easy to use.
