Before We Eat: From Farm to Table

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Mary Azarian. The book opens with what looks like an extended family sitting around a table laden with food; the diners then proceed to give thanks to all those who helped provide their feast, from farmers and fishermen to truckers and grocery clerks. Sumptuous woodcut illustrations on clean double-page spreads and a simple, gently rhyming text celebrate the workers and the process.
