Praise for Sophie Uliano:

"To be with Sophie is to be so caught up in the thrill of the potential of good " --Julia Roberts

"Sophie Uliano teaches us that we need not equate eco-friendly with Birkenstocks and wheatgrass shakes . . . she ushers us into a lifestyle that's ever so eco-chic." -- Los Angeles Confidential

"Sophie Uliano is a Mary Poppins for the new millennium: Rather than advocating a spoonful of sugar to help the medicine go down, Uliano will recommend rubbing sugar on your skin to make it glow--and then offer numerous other homegrown tips and tricks." -- Good Housekeeping
