Reviews

A useful supplement to children's experience of growing food in the nursery garden and preparing food for snack, and the pictures are bound to appeal to the younger ones. Montessori International What a delight! ... gloriously illustrated ... This book is so much more than A is for Apple and so on. School Librarian a fantastically colourful look at food and its global context Juno
