Follow Granny Root as she spreads compost, plants seedlings, and picks fruit in this stylish and fact-filled picture book, part of the Follow My Food series that looks at the ways different foods are produced.
Blueberries, raspberries, apples, and pears--they all come to the table after months of hard work growing them in the ground, on bushes, or in trees. Granny Root Grows Fruit is a simple but effective way to teach children (and adults!) about the process of growing berries and fruit. Featuring attractive collage-style art, the book also includes a matching game, a display of different types of fruits, berries, and nuts, and a recipe using fruits and berries.
