A loving ode to the people who bring food to our table and connection to our community, from acclaimed artist Alice Oehr. - A gorgeous gift for young children to inspire a lifelong love of food. - A wonderful resource for educators and librarians to help students build visual and produce literacy, connecting words for a broad array of produce with images of it, and building a sense of curiosity about trying new foods. - Just right for fans of Louise Elhert’s classics Market Day and Eating the Alphabet, and Chris Butterworth and Lucia Gaggiotti’s How Did That Get in My Lunchbox?
