More than just a gluten & dairy free cookbook, this book is full of information on food additives & allergies and was a huge help to my family when we were first attempting to go gluten free. This is the one book you'll need if you're struggling with not only how to change your child's diet but how to do it safely & accurately!
A classic in every sense, this may be the last great graphic novel to be made into a movie but it's been influencing films for decades. The characters, artwork & entire plot have been stolen & reworked by others but have never come close to capturing the original vision. Do yourself a favor; experience the original & let Frank MIller show you what a graphic novel can do.
Who knew a grisly true-life murder mystery would be so entertaining!?! As you might expect from a Portland State University professor, author Paul Collins' research is extensive & detailed but it's his surprisingly fun way with words & vivid descriptions of 1897 New York that draw you in. Practically a history of how tabloid journalism began, this book couldn't be more timely, especially regarding ethically challenged newspaper owners starting a media frenzy. Fast paced & often hilarious, appealing to both mystery & history fans, yet again, Paul Collins has shown fact is stranger than fiction!
