Editorial : About the Author
Peter Christen Asbjørnsen (15 January 1812 — 6 January 1885) was a Norwegian writer and scholar. He and Jørgen Engebretsen Moe were collectors of Norwegian folklore. Abbie Farwell Brown (August 21, 1871 – March 5, 1927) was an American author. Original stories by Brown include The Lonesomest Doll (1901), The Flower Princess (1904), John of the Woods (1909), and The Lucky Stone (1914). George Webbe Dasent (1817–1896) was a translator of folk tales and contributor to The Times. Jørgen Engebretsen Moe (22 April 1813 – 27 March 1882) was a Norwegian folklorist, bishop, poet and author.

Tomatoland made me take a good look at the tomato industry and I didn't like what I saw at all. Also to use the whole lime, peel and all. Also a very cool chapter on the vitamins and anti-oxidants, and how what each fruit or vegetable may help. It is for me however, the love between Darius and his brother and sister that make this book so very special to me. Wish I had my money and time back.. I have been delighted before by Williams’ whip-sharp prose and cleverly rendered plots and hoped I would find the same here.
