Red Rock Press and Red Pebble editors, authors and illustrators are in love with food, especially yummy treats. Our books are gifts and we think luscious food is a gift so our books tend to picture food in surprising places.
Powerful drink recipes pop up in Envy, Anger & Sweet Revenge. On the other hand, if you ever wondered what is served in paradise, take a look at the birthday cake drawn by Anna Jurinich in the new children's charmer, Where Do the Balloons Go?
But we don't believe that everything that is delicious needs to be fattening. Where Do the Balloons Go? also reveals what balloon fairies eat for breakfast. They eat the fragrant air inside popovers. And one birthday-party treat is a crunchy carrot stick.
That said, there are a few fabulous Red Rock Press books that any food lover will also love. Just click on the titles to learn more.
The quintessential luxury-food book is Gluttony: More is More by Nan Lyons, famous for her food writing in books, magazines and movies. Its title doesn't quite say it all.

A few years ago, Michael Turback wrote A Month of Sundaes, the first book ever on the classic American dessert. Soon he was making sundaes for network TV hosts and (virtually for) their tens of millions of viewers across the nation. His book celebrated both home-made sundaes and stunning ice cream concoctions served in selected restaurants or simple luncheonettes. Michael, as you might guess, heard from ice cream lovers everywhere—and some reports were just too enticing for him not to check out.
Now the T.V. Sundae King is back with More than a Month of Sundaes, which adds to his initial book in more than 500 ways, including an authoritative list of top ice cream parlors in the nation and some new sundae ideas. And this time, his book is in paperback so it costs even less.
