Eggs from Red Hen Farm: Farm to Table with Mazes and Maps
by Monica Wellington (Author / Illustrator)
@ Amazon | Bookshop | IndieBound

Booktalk: Maps and mazes show children where their food comes from as Ruby and Ned gather eggs from their hens and ride their red truck to deliver the eggs–to the farmer’s market, the restaurant, the school, the grocery story, and the bakery. The baker uses the eggs in her yummiest cookies–and gives them to Ruby and Ned!

Snippet: “I’m good at counting money,” says Ned.
“You take care of business here,” says Ruby. “I’ll make the deliveries.”

Booktalk: The love between mother and child is a deep, profound bond, and that is true whether the pair walks on two legs, flies through the air, or swims in the ocean. A mother knows how precious her child is. In this rhyming picture book, human and animal mothers tell their little ones why they love them, sharing what is beautiful and unique about their children. From wrinkly skin to sharp claws to prickly quills, mothers love their babies just as they are. Back matter includes photos and factoids about each featured animal.
