Booktalk: In 1956, Frieda Caplan started working at the Seventh Street Produce Market in Los Angeles. Instead of competing with the men in the business with their apples, potatoes, and tomatoes, Frieda thought, why not try something new? Staring with mushrooms, Frieda began introducing fresh and unusual foods to her customers–snap peas, seedless watermelon, mangos, and more!

You have made it easy for me to choose a book for my niece. She is a teenager now. I wanted to gift her a book that she will enjoy. And I think she will love this one.
The book revolves around a woman how managed in the so-called men’s business and became the best among them. So it will be quite good inspiring for her I guess.
I am going to order two copies, one for her and one for me.
Thank you so much for introducing such a wonderful book. I genuinely appreciate that. Keep doing this.
Happy reading!!
