Great product!
My daughter received the Cook It In a Cup set for her 5th birthday, and she, her 2 year old sister and I are LOVING this! The kids love the novelty of the cups, and the recipes are really tailored so that the kids can be a big part of the preparation. There is great variety in the food, from very healthy selections (baked fish and veggies) to sweet treats (brownies). This has been a wonderful ...

Pictorial Webster's: A Visual Dictionary of Curiosities

Chronicle Books, 2009
Childhood Dream Come true
I remember leafing through an inches-thick dictionary years ago, and wishing there was some kind of extract with just the animal pictures. Lo and behold, here it comes! This book contains not just the animals, of course, but most of the illustrated entries (just picture and caption) of the original Webster's. You can even compare how certain visual concepts changed over the years, as sometimes ...

Cutest form of reverse psychology
I've given "The Little Pea" book as gifts before, but finding this set was truly a gem! All three books are sweetly written and the illustrations enhance the story. Plus, the child friendly cardboard-like pages will help keep these books in better shape for many years to come.

Dream Snow
Oh my gosh! We haven't used this calendar yet but just opening it up and looking inside is just as beautiful as the "Dream Snow" book! We can't wait to decorate the tree inside!
Foodie Fight: A Trivia Game for Serious Food Lovers

Joyce Lock
Chronicle Books, 2007
Great game for foodies and non-foodies alike!
Outstanding game! I purchased this as a gift for my fiancee - who is a hardcore foodie. The categories are diverse and even the non-foodie will enjoy playing. In fact, the non-foodies in our family seemed to do better at the food in movies and TV questions! And some of the question were advanced so even the foodies were challenged! Lots of fun!

Too funny!
I was visting my (almost 70 year-old, very religious) mom a year or so ago and she had this book out. I looked at the title and was bewildered for a minute until I opened it up and died laughing. I was not expecting what was inside. I'm not kidding. I had tears in my eyes and was laughing out loud! What a little gem of a book. I'm going to buy a few as Christmas gifts this year.

Great book for a bird lover!
We got this book for my father-in-law's 94th birthday. He's homebound now but has always been a bird lover. I think this brings a bit of the outdoors in for him. He has to show everyone who visits his new "toy." Great book!

This is the most perfect gift for top chef fans, but also those that want to advance thier cooking experience
This is the most perfect gift for top the chef fan, but also for those who want to advance their cooking experience. I am a top chef addict and really into cooking. I was not sure about purchasing the series book but did. I was then turned on to high flame looking at the photography. Due to the comments by the chefs I then bought Thomas Keller's ' Bouchon ' and ' French Laundry ' cook books. ...

Lives up to previous books
Once again, Ivy and Bean enthralled my reluctant reader 9 year old. She can't wait for each new Ivy and Bean adventure. She got it for her birthday and had finished it before the week was out.

Great
This was a great buy and a great gift. It has spaces for different sized tickets, and the back has storage slots large enough for playbills.
Bird

Chronicle Books, 2009
WOW
I don't have the book in my hands yet (my daughter just sent me a link to Zuckerman's astonishing website - go see both the photographs and his film). I'm a lifelong ornithologist and bibliophile, and I've never seen anything like this man's work. Were they, indeed, photos or were they a whole new kind of superrealistic, microscopically detailed paintings? I couldn't tell. The sense of ...
The Backyard Birdsong Guide: Eastern and Central North America (Backyard Birdsong Guides)

Chronicle Books, 2008
Great Book!
One of my friends actually loaned me her copy of this book and I liked it so much that I had to buy my own! This book helped me uncover the origins of several songs I had been hearing. I was pleased to see that there was not just a recording (or several, in some cases) for each particular bird, but also a map of the birds distribution.
