Excitement and History all Rolled into One.
26 Jan 2007
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
Excellent book to read. Takes you back to times long ago when Countries fought over things we consider very ordinary today, that is, various cooking spices. The book is well researched and although waffled on a bit here and there as all books tend to do, kept mostly to the point and made interesting reading. There were many references to where nutmeg grows. Who'd have thought such a little spice would be so selective of it's environment. Yes, definitely worth buying and reading, you'll learn a lot and enjoy the learning.

wonderful creativity
1 Dec 2006
Format:Hardcover
This is a such a creative book. The story seems so unique and fun with no bad feelings by the main character towards a dull life, but things look up and Nutmeg has a great adventure with her family. She is a great main character. The illustrations are somewhat whimsical and the story flows so quickly and dramatically along. I highly recommend this book for children aged 4-8. My son seemed to enjoy it a lot.
A fun followup
10 Dec 2006
Format:Hardcover
Everything's always the same for Nutmeg and her family: nothing ever changes whether it's a meal or activities - but when she meets a mysterious genie who gives her a magical spoon, the meals change - and so does the boring aspects of life. The spoon whips up not only meals but trouble - and soon their house is whipped into a ship which takes them to something different. A fun followup to HALIBUT JACKSON, NUTMEG stands well alone and requires no previous familiarity with the author to succeed - but any who read NUTMEG will find themselves enchanted, and looking for HALIBUT JACKSON.
