A Pinch of Love

A gentle and lyrical picture book that celebrates different types of love in a community - as well as the love that comes through baking, cooking and sharing food.

Following on from Love Grows Everywhere, A Pinch of Love will be Barry Timms and Tisha Lee's second book on the subject—this time celebrating the love that comes through baking, cooking, and sharing food. Our lead characters, a boy and his grandmother, are preparing for a big neighbourhood bake-off.

We follow the loving (and sticky!) moments of their tender relationship, along with the many other warm bonds that exist within their community. Barry Timms' gentle text skilfully links these loving moments with the love that is represented by the food, while Tisha Lee's lush illustrations give real depth to this vibrant neighbourhood. This book will be a second warm and charming tale that will be perfect for Valentine's Day and beyond.

About the Author

Barry Timms enjoys the way that stories bring people together. He grew up in the rolling, rugged Cornish landscape but now lives by an old water tower in South London and is a city boy at heart. Barry can often be found with pencil in hand, writing or drawing or both. Most exciting of all is putting words and images together, and the surprising results that can happen. Barry likes road movies, ghost trains and exploring forgotten side streets. His books include This is NOT A Unicorn!, The Twelve Green Days of Christmas, Where Happiness Lives and Noah and the Starbird.

Tisha Lee is an author and illustrator living in Northern California. She studied Fine Art & Art History at the University of California, Davis. Now she happily works out of a light-filled studio in her backyard with a few dogs at her feet. She mostly uses gouache for her illustrations and finds inspiration in the details and diversity of everyday life. Love Grows Everywhere is her first book.
