Alice Waters and the Trip to Delicious by Jacqueline Briggs Martin

2.0

Alice Waters opened the Chez Panisse restaurant, and started the "Edible Schoolyard" program to create gardens in schools and teach kids about eating healthy, growing their own food. As a biography, this book is sparse on details: she loved food as a kid, went to college in France, and "studied food." She made meals for friends, then opened CP. That's it, basically. Nice book for promoting eating natural and healthy. Adorable colorful illustrations with nice borders around two-page spreads that show an action sequence (such as Alice driving around town collecting fresh ingredients, or constructing a garden from an empty parking lot). Has bibliography and list of resources for reading and cooking, and an afterword by Alice.
