THE PICTURE COOKBOOK
Independent Cooking for People with Special Needs
Volume 1 No-Cook Recipes
Joyce Dassonville and Ehren McDow
There has never been a cookbook like this, nor has there been a book that could improve the lives of families with special needs members more than this book has the potential to do. After a futile search to buy a book for teaching her daughter to cook, the author eventually wrote the book she had sought to buy. The first in a series of four cookbooks for budding chefs with special needs including autism, attention deficit disorder, Down’s Syndrome, Alzheimer’s disease, illiteracy, advanced or young age, The Picture Cookbook is the result of the author’s four years of efforts teaching her own autistic daughter to cook and bake.
The title says it all, but the book is not simply a series of pictures leading the potential chef through the steps. All aspects of avoiding injury and ensuring success have been cleverly thought through. Using modern kitchen tools, the authors have written recipes that are safe for anyone to use, be they young children, confused adults or people with special needs. Furthermore, for the benefit of teachers and caregivers, instructions on the process of teaching someone to use the cookbook are detailed, as well as discussions of issues that can arise.
The picture index allows cooks to easily spot their favourite recipes without the need to read or understand names. The book boasts lay-flat binding, extensive colour-coding, and beautifully laid out colour photography.

HOLDING ON
Poems for Alex
Cathy Sosnowsky
Cathy Sosnowsky's poems stand testament to a grieving mother's love for her son who died in an accident just days after his seventeenth birthday. Although these poems began as therapy, "poetic medicine" for a wounded heart, the book is ultimately a celebration of the art of making, of the ability to find joy even in despair. A former college instructor of English, the author now works with other bereaved parents and gives workshops on writing as a means of healing.
