I have a rather old canning book with slick pages. One of my girls set a melon on it and allowed it to spoil. I wasn't even aware they had picked a melon! Now my book is stuck together and it is very important. My dad asked to borrow it and that is how I found out it was messed up. Now I need to fix it.
Any ideas?
I am actually thinking of trying to wet it with water to break up the sugar sticky from the melon.
Good idea or bad?

Hmmm is this an oop book or can you get yourself another copy? I'd google on how to clean up messy book pages.
It was a pre-1975 ball canning book. It was a light blue and white book kinda small and it was paperback. Anything close would be good enough, they just dropped a huge amount of the recipes from it in the new ones.
