Explore the dramatic history of the world's most expensive spice in Saffron: A Global History
Literally worth their weight in gold, sunset-red saffron threads are prized internationally. Saffron can be found in cave art in Mesopotamia, in the frescoes of ancient Santorini, in the dyed wrappings of Egyptian mummies, in the saffron-hued robes of Buddhist monks, and in unmistakable dishes around the world. It has been the catalyst for trade wars, as well as smuggling schemes, and used in medicine and cosmetics. Complete with delicious recipes and surprising anecdotes, this book traces the many paths taken by saffron, revealing the allure of a spice sought globally by merchants, chefs, artists, scientists, clerics, traders, warriors and black market smugglers.

The drawings were cute and funny.
Format: Hardcover
Kitten Ninja is a cute graphic novel for young readers, who love cats, and mischief. The Illustrations are adorable and well done, capturing Kitten Ninja battling it out against his enemies. The writing is easy to read and fun. Three short but entertaining stories about Kitten Ninja, as he faces off against his foes, the Spot, Ball of Yarn, and Snow.
Here is what my eight year old thought of Kitten Ninja:
"It was good. I liked it, and thought it was funny. The drawings were cute and funny. Kitten Ninja vs The Spot was my favorite."
Kitten Ninja is perfect for fans of "Pets Rule!" books, "Bad Guys" books, or "Bad Kitty" books; and is the prequel to the "Cat Ninja" books, in these cute but funny tales. 5 ⭐ out of 5⭐ definitely recommend.

A good update for a fifty year geologist
Format: Hardcover
I wanted an update on plate tectonics as I was a geologist for 50 years and it was a theory back when I was in school particularly on mountain building I have been impressed so far I am about half way through the book and the book does a fine job of laying a solid foundation of physics and geochemistry that are the basics for the remainder of the book
