5.0 out of 5 stars A priceless southern treasure, February 16, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: A Place Called Sweet Apple: Country Living and Southern Recipes (Hardcover)

This book represents the special value system of the south, so aptly captured by Celestine Sibley as she speaks of her daily experiences and kindnesses to people, nature and her profession. She speaks with an honesty and humor that is uplifting and full of sentiment. She has a great ability to describe the environment so well that one thinks he/she is walking with her along the wooded paths. This book needs to be published again in tribute to her priceless gift of writing.

5.0 out of 5 stars YOU MIGHT AS WELL BUY MORE THAN ONE COPY!, August 2, 2000

Phyllis Petras (Sacramento, California (it sure is flat here! If you get up on a chair, it is called higher elevation!))) - See all my reviews

You might as well order more than one copy of all of Miss Sibley's books ( every single one of them) as you will always be glad to have a present on hand to give to someone. You can give these books to anyone, any age, for any occasion. In fact, if you lend these books to your friends, they may never give them back. Some people have been known to move out of town and take these books with them! ( These people know who they are) You have to be careful about these Celestine Sibley thieves! Just be sure that you have at least one set of the books for yourself, as you will receive such joy.
