Nina Garcia’s The One Hundred – In Stores Now

So I got my copy of Nina Garcia’s The One Hundred yesterday.  What an incredibly nice book.  Im not sure why I was surprised by how nice it was, other than the price is so right, I wasn’t expecting such a thick, heavy book.   MSRP is $21.95, but Amazon has it right now for $13.97 – go snatch it!

I made it through about the first 30 items last night, and well, I need to shop.  I did see the darned Birken page in there, although I haven’t made it that far in the book yet – should have known she wouldn’t leave that out!

Particularly notable in this book are the illustrations by Ruben Toledo.  If I am not mistaken, he did the illustrations for her last book, and quite honestly, the book is worth having just to see those.  But there is so much more to enjoy about the book – its a great addition to your collection of books – its a quick light read, and once again, the personal side of Nina Garcia is totally enchanting.  I hope you will get it and please do let me know what you think – I hope you will agree with me!
