If I could give this book 10 stars, I would!
It's about time that this novel has been reprinted. I bought this book about 25 years ago. In that time, I've read it about 15 times. I cry every time I get to the last chapter. Do yourself a favor. When you buy this book, and you will, buy all of the others in the series. You can't go wrong.

Ice Cream Melts takes you on a journey through the minds of various individuals. Nnamdi became these people, pouring out their souls and the turmoil in their lives. Although all different, everyone has a voice, even the pleading baby. Nnamdi's writing speaks volumes. I scream, you scream, we all scream...

The Scoop: Much more than floats and sundaes
I didn't think I would be interested in a book on store-bought ice cream desserts but with the encouragement of my ice-cream-loving child I agreed to have a look. The second recipe in the book, gelato affogato (ice cream with espresso and Cognac) showed this was going to be much more sophisticated and delightful than what I thought. There are root-beer floats and chocolate milkshakes (hers is ...

Leslie Levine has given us a reason to cheer: we don't have to follow the rules and do exactly what we're supposed to all the time.

American Cream
This book, as well as her earlier "Tenney's Landing" are profound in their use of quotidian situations explore profound human dilemmas. Terrific character development, the juxtaposition of the bucolic and the horrific and the hilarious and the poignant make her the most recent addition to my list of favorite writers

Thoughtful, Informative, Delicious, Doable Desserts.
This is David Lebovitz' first of two books on desserts. The second is devoted entirely to desserts made with fruits. This volume is more general, including recipes for just about every different type of dessert you may think of. The collection is weighted in favor of recipes which would work well in a restaurant, so the number of recipes typical to the home are less common than you may find in a ...

The PERFECT ice cream book!
I've never been moved to write a review before, but after my first successful batch of ice-cream (following many miserable failures) - I decided that I must share my joy. First of all, this is a lovely little hard bound book. It will take up a tiny space on your shelves - and, most importantly, it is easy to hold with one hand while you are fastidiously stirring custard with the other. ...

We're Not Worthy
Absolutely love this book. I've owned it for years and whenever I need to bring something sweet to some event, this is the book I go to. The Lemon Squares on pages 152/153 are the best I've ever had. Everything in this book is so good and fresh tasting. Nothing is over cooked, or bland or ordinary. I love Peach Crumb Pie and the Very Short Shortbread Cookies. The frosting recipes in the book ...

I scream, you scream...
I love having a happy belly and "East Coast Scoops" sure tickled my tummy! Each entry is imformative and unique. My belly concurs with Ms. Steintrager's assesment of Christina's in Cambridge. I was lucky enough to sample their fares twice during a cold and snowy winter trip (that should tell you something)! A trip to New York is in my future and I can't wait to try the lychee ice cream at ...

Never boring
As usual the mischievous monkey, George, gets himself into lots of trouble at his visit to an ice cream shop. Also, as usual, everything ends well... This is a perfect bed-time reading for your baby. My children always ask for new stories about the monkey George. This one is only one of many others that we all know in our family. Although we can practically recite George's adventures one ...

Swooning in New Jersey
This cocoa-dusted treasure hits that mythical sweet spot between practical, trusted travel guide and gorgeous, dreamy (if petite) coffee table book. Full of the kind of beautiful photos and evocative lyrical prose that you'll never find in any guide and jam-packed with all of the actionable, expert advice that's missing from all those exquisitely photographed gift books, this one has it all. ...

A real treat of a book!
So far, this book has garnered only five-star reviews, and I absolutely agree with all the raves the other reviewers have given this book. I bought it for a research project along with quite a number of other food history books, and this is probably the best of the lot. It's more than history and facts - yes, it teaches you more than you ever wanted to know about ice cream, but it's fun and ...

Buy this before it goes out of print!
I have owned this book for years. It is completely reliable, the recipes are pretty simple, and the results are outstanding. I have had failures with other expert books such as the Pie or the Cake Bibles; Rosie's book has never let me down. This is not aimed at diet-conscious bakers or consumers. But when you want to wow someone with flavor and authenticity, when it's time for a splurge, when ...

One of my treasured favorites
I remember reading this for the first time at about the age of 9 and loving it. I read it many times through the years. I recently picked up a copy for my collection of childhood favorites and have re-read it several times since. The story still rings with impact and life-lessons that still apply in today's world. An enjoyable book for a young girl!

I like this book because of the Ice Cream Cone Coot and all of the other funny birds. My grandmom has a copy of this book and we read it whenever we come to her house. It was my mom's book when she was a little girl. And now it's my grandmom's book. That's all.
