    I'm so happy to have found this rare gem in your selection. It was wrapped carefully and arrived safely in a few days. The cookbook was impeccably described and all the pics showed a great amount of details. Considering how few of these are around the price was very reasonable. Thank you for the great service, I'm looking forward to finding more delightful treasures!

    A gift.

    'Carrot Seeds' is a children's book that I going to gift to new grandparents that raise carrot seeds on their farm in Oregon. It's a very specialized crop that only 3 areas in the world have the right condition to raise the seed. The book will perfect for them!
