Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
Gr. 4-6. Even those who never quite get around to baking a loaf of
acorn bread, tossing a "Weedy Lawn Salad," or frying up a mess of dandelion
fritters will get a kick out of browsing through this attractive book.
Based on George's more complete The Wild, Wild Cookbook (1982), this volume
includes fewer plants and recipes, but looks much more inviting.
Botanically precise and visually appealing, Mirocha's full-color artwork in gouache
and colored pencil appears on every page yet never dominates the book. For
those who find wild foods intriguing, George offers sensible foraging
guidelines and creative cooking ideas. Carolyn Phelan
Book Description
Come On Out And Gather Wild Foods
All that is needed is a penknife, a bag, and fingers. Wear old clothes and
old shoes. Wild crops are found along roadsides and waterways; in marshes,
fields, forests, city parks; and even on sidewalks. Then follow Jean Craighead George's simple recipes for cooking these wild foods -- and enjoy!
