In Mary's exuberant artistic style, the theme of serving tea and collecting "tea stuff" is treated with joy. A lifetime collector who enjoys the acoutrements of tea as much as the tea party itself, the author/illustrator includes photos from her own collection and favorite recipes. I've recently added this volume to my tea book collection and enjoyed reading it.

Mary Engelbreit infuses her whimsical style into everything she creates, and this book is a prime example. It is beautifully illustrated and photographed. There's a little bit of everything on the subject of tea here, like tea history, tea decor, and tea party ideas. It's bound to put a smile on your face.

Good if you like Tea.
Little too small, and not enough illustrations for me.
Low on the list of my favorite ME books.

This is one of those special books you come across once in a long while. Mary Englebreit is well loved the world over and this book contains many of her wonderful drawings plus photos of some of her own tea collectibles. This is a delightful little book - one to treasure. If you love tea I think you'll love this book. If you love ME I guarantee you love it! And if you haven't met Mary and her works yet, you are in for a real treat!
