Is it a paper book?

No. It is a PDF file, the kind that opens on any phone, tablet or computer. You can print any page on an ordinary printer. There is nothing to ship and nothing to wait for.

Will I lose it if I change phones?

No. Keep the download page, or write to ruth@grandmaedna.com and Ruth will send it again.

Who is Grandma Edna?

Grandma Edna is a fictional character, voiced and animated with artificial intelligence. The recipes are traditional Amish and Pennsylvania Dutch home cooking, written in plain steps. Her granddaughter Ruth, who keeps the book updated, is the person who answers your letters.
