Summer comes on bright and hot as a firecracker, bursting with blackberries and watermelon. The air is filled with freshly-cut grass and barbecued chicken, trees in full green furl, garden hoses hissing, the crack of a baseball bat, the gleeful shouts of children. It's the time of year when we recall the long lazy summer days of childhood and recapture the joy with picnics, camp-outs, backyard parties and family reunions.

In Celebrate Summer you'll find recipes for cool crisp salads, easy appetizers, carefree entrees, creamy desserts and sparkling refreshments for most any occasion under the sun, from Independence Day to a seaside clambake. Just for fun, we've packed every chapter with how-to's and tips anyone can do. So make a tall glass of lemonade, stretch out in a lawn chair and browse with us as we savor each summer day, as luscious and sweet as that first bite of watermelon! Hardcover, 128 pages.
