Grace Lin

In this charming story about celebrating differences a Chinese-American girl wishes for a garden of bright flowers instead of one full of bumpy, ugly, vegetables. The neighbors' gardens look so much prettier and so much more inviting to the young gardener than the garden of "black-purple-green vines, fuzzy wrinkled leaves, prickly stems, and a few little yellow flowers" that she and her mother grow. Nevertheless, mother assures her that "these are better than flowers." Come harvest time, everyone agrees as those ugly Chinese vegetables become the tastiest, most aromatic soup they have ever known. As the neighborhood comes together to share flowers and ugly vegetable soup, the young gardener learns that regardless of appearances, everything has its own beauty and purpose. THE UGLY VEGETABLES springs forth with the bright and cheerful colors of blooming flowers and lumpy vegetables. Grace Lin's playful illustrations pour forth with abundant treasures. Complete with a guide to the Chinese pronunciation of the vegetables and the recipe for ugly vegetable soup!

Growing Food and Flowers in Your Greenhouse or Sunspace

Life changes on the way to happily ever after, doesn’t it? I mean, sometimes you don’t even see it coming until one day you wake up and say, “Wait—this is not where I was supposed to end up!” It doesn’t matter if you got divorced, got fat, got fired, got sick, or just got stuck—you can always call for a “redo.” See, you’re the author of your own book and it’s time for a dramatic plot twist, so let’s get working on that. This is not the end of your story; this is where you learn about second acts, second chances, and new beginnings . . . In this book, I’ll share with you what I’ve learned about calling for a second take in my own life. I’ll tell you how I’ve done it in a very public business and managed to come out the other side with my heart intact and my feet on the ground. I’m assuming you and I might actually have a lot in common—well, unless you’re one of those astonishingly lucky women who married the right guy (the first time), got the job you wanted making the money you wanted while brilliantly parenting the children you imagined, and living it all in your size-2 body, perfectly happy and serene. Now, if you do happen to be one of those women, please put down this book and go write one of your own! As for the rest of us, I’ve always thought we reach our highest “goddess quotient” when we share our paths, especially the detours, bumps, and potholes that help us find who we really are. . . . At the end of this book, I hope you’ll go for it! The new job, the new relationship, the new body—the new you—just put it out there and make it happen. Come on! You’ve got this! Welcome to your Take 2.
