What’s in the Garden?
by Marianne Berkes (Author) and Cris Arbo (Illustrator)
Booktalk: Good food doesn’t begin on a store shelf with a box. It comes from a garden bursting with life, color, sounds, smells, sunshine, moisture, birds, and bees! Healthy food becomes much more interesting when children know where they come from. So what’s in the garden? Kids will find a variety fruits and vegetables, and a tasty, kid-friendly recipe for each one to start a lifetime of good eating.
Snippet:
Delicious, nutritious, what could it be?
In spring there are blossoms all over the tree,
Red, green, or yellow, with fruit that is round.
If you don’t pick it, it plops to the ground.
