Book excerpt: Six-year-old JJ Veitch is a sweet, curious boy who loves the Lord, helping others, and embarking on adventures in the woods. Unfortunately JJ has no idea that he is at the beginning of a journey that will push him to the brink of manhood and teach him that bullies come in all shapes and sizes. JJ's father, Jason, is battling bullies. His are the most fearsome kind: adults. Desperate for change, he has to somehow find a way to stop the copper thieves who are robbing him of his livelihood. But when he takes matters into his own hands, he lands in jail, a horrifying place he never thought he'd be. As his family battles on Jason's behalf, JJ is terrorized by neighborhood thugs and must make a difficult choice whether to turn the other cheek or stand tall and fight for his beliefs. Will he and his family realize they only need to have faith the size of a mustard seed before it is too late?

Book excerpt: After years spent traveling and sampling sweets throughout her native Mexico, celebrated pastry chef Fany Gerson shares the secrets behind her beloved homeland’s signature desserts in this highly personal and authoritative cookbook. Skillfully weaving together the rich histories that inform the country’s diverse culinary traditions, My Sweet Mexico is a delicious journey into the soul of the cuisine. From yeasted breads that scent the air with cinnamon, anise, sugar, fruit, and honey, to pushcarts that brighten plazas with paletas and ice creams made from watermelon, mango, and avocado, Mexican confections are like no other. Stalwarts like Churros, Amaranth Alegrías, and Garibaldis—a type of buttery muffin with apricot jam and sprinkles—as well as Passion Fruit–Mezcal Trifle and Cheesecake with Tamarind Sauce demonstrate the layering of flavors unique to the world of dulces. In her typical warm and enthusiastic style, Gerson explains the significance of indigenous ingredients such as sweet maguey plants, mesquite, honeys, fruits, and cacao, and the happy results that occur when combined with Spanish troves of cinnamon, wheat, fresh cow’s milk, nuts, and sugar cane. In chapters devoted to breads and pastries, candies and confections, frozen treats, beverages, and contemporary desserts, Fany places cherished recipes in context and stays true to the roots that shaped each treat, while ensuring they’ll yield successful results in your kitchen. With its blend of beloved standards from across Mexico and inventive, flavor-forward new twists, My Sweet Mexico is the only guide you need to explore the delightful universe of Mexican treats.
