"Learning from renowned Chez Panisse chef Waters is always a joy, and this combination manifesto/cookbook is no different. Her rousing, optimistic, logical blueprint for a 'revolution' that removes the processing and packaging from the farm-to-lunchroom pipeline to provide school children with healthful, seasonal, ethically sourced foods is inspiring . . . Once readers are thoroughly convinced, Waters dives into the recipes: simple but never plain, well-explained but always personable, seasonal, nutrient- and flavor-rich, and representative of global flavor preferences. Each recipe is crafted with the personal touch of a handwritten favorite from a friend, and offers variations to expand a dish's flavor or usefulness . . . [A] gorgeous and heartfelt book." — Booklist (starred review)
