Um, can I be Tasha Tudor when I grow up? This woman inspires me so much.

There wasn't a moment during this read that I didn't feel as though I was sitting somewhere in Tasha's home and experiencing the wonders described here. While there wasn't much in the way of explaining these heirloom craft, the book never claimed to be a tutorial. It was a nice way to spend a few hours at the library.

I ❤️❤️❤️ Tasha Tudor. This book is absolutely beautifully illustrated! I enjoy reading these types of biographies- short and visual. I can’t wait to get a hold of other Tasha Tudor books like this!

Nothing of substance here, but Tudor's fans will find much to gawk over here.

It was a nice read, but I was hoping to maybe learn something else--more about how Tudor did all of these crafts (read: how can I learn to do it, too?) or maybe more about Tudor herself. The book gives tantalizing glimpses to who Tudor was, and what Tudor did with her life, but maybe what I was (wrongly) hoping to get out of this book was a better idea of how I can grow up to be Tasha Tudor. In a few places the author repeated themselves, so a keener editor would have been useful, and I think, too, that more documentation and a better sense of their audience would be useful (is this an adult book? Or for kids? It wanted to straddle the line and say BOTH! but I don't think this book could manage that careful line the way it wanted).
