Includes bibliographical references.
This looks like a simple book about making a blackberry dessert, but because the setting spans 1610-2010, it touches upon history, fashion, kitchen and refrigeration technology, and social issues such as slavery and division of labor between men and women. (Miller Library Staff)
Depicts families, from England to California and from 1710 to 2010, preparing and enjoying the dessert called blackberry fool. Includes a recipe and historical notes.
Ages 4-8.
Recommended for preschool (age 0-5) and primary school (age 6-12).
