Three children vacationing on their great-aunt's small island discover a three-headed dragon. "Tri-Drake" tells tales geared towards teaching a lesson to each child, but the stories are entertaining enough to not beat the reader over the head with the moral of the story.

I wanted a book with recipes that would be appropriate for our family dinners rather than a fancy party. Her recipes are easy to follow and the photos are gorgeous and inspiring. I have recipes for some of the common dishes, but I tweaked mine with her suggestions and now they turn out even better than before. Simple ingredients, non-fussy cooking, delicious meals.
