Customer Reviews

Cinnamon, Mint & Mothballs appeals to even the very young.

I purchased this book as a gift for a friend's one-year old child. Apparently, it became little Blake's favorite book, and is still a well-loved (and slightly worn!) posession. Ms. Tiller's gentle Haiku poetry combined with the beautiful illustrations create an appealing combination of satisfying sensations that span all the usual gaps of age and experience. I have given this book as a gift several times since and it is always well-received and appreciated by children and parents alike.
