Through wonderful illustrations and original poems readers learn about a special group of eleven lakes called the Finger Lakes in upstate, western New York! Yes, there are eleven finger lakes!Even people already familiar with the Finger Lakes will enjoy the illustrations, and delightfully informative poems. The book is a fun way for anyone to learn and recall all the Native American inspired names and some facts about these lakes.The narrator is a character called "Grapie." Wearing his "Finger Lakes at your fingertips" gloves he proudly proclaims he will be "your Finger Lakes guide." He takes readers from east to west, one finger and one lake at a time. Each lake is illustrated on its own page. There's a short list of facts about the lake in the upper left-hand corner of the page labeled "Grapie's Juicy Info!" The clever poems that describe each lake convey the primary substance of the book in a friendly manner. The poems serve as an interesting medium for young readers to discover unique features of the lake, its surrounding areas and added attractions.In the early pages of the book readers are reminded that these beautiful, long, narrow lakes (that's why they're called "finger" lakes) are "?a glacial gift of the Ice Age." In simple terms and illustrations both Native American legend and glacier activity are explained. On "A note from the author" page Hamilton explains the choice of Grapie as narrator. Grapes refuse to grow in just any place. These lakes and their hillsides and soil make for a perfect environment. Throughout the finger lakes area there are about 10,000 acres of grapevines. The Finger Lakes Region produces 90% of wine in New York State, plus other products.Grapes love the lakes!

Book excerpt: “From unraveling the history of the apple to exploring the intricacies of flavor, [Wilson] reveals the love and labor that goes into a timeless beverage.” —Bianca Bosker, New York Times–bestselling author of Cork Dork Cider is the quintessential American beverage. Drank by early settlers and founding fathers, it was ubiquitous and pervasive, but following Prohibition when orchards were destroyed and neglected, cider all but disappeared. In The Cider Revival, Jason Wilson chronicles what is happening now, an extraordinary rebirth that is less than a decade old. Following the seasons through the autumn harvest, winter fermentation, spring bottling, and summer festival and orchard work, Wilson travels around New York and New England, with forays to the Midwest, the West Coast, and Europe. He meets the new heroes of cider: orchardists who are rediscovering long lost apple varieties, cider makers who have the attention to craftsmanship of natural wine makers, and beverage professionals who see cider as poised to explode in popularity. What emerges is a deeply rewarding story, an exploration of cider’s identity and future, and its cultural and environmental significance. A blend of history and travelogue, The Cider Revival is a toast to a complex drink. “Cider is America’s great forgotten beverage. Jason Wilson’s lively, anecdote-filled, passionate paean to what he says should properly be considered ‘apple win’ will go a long way toward giving this immensely varied and complex libation the recognition and appreciation it deserves.” —Colman Andrews, cofounder of Saveur and author of The British Table
