Making Minestrone

(4) PS Illustrated by Nan Brooks. Those for whom gardens and farms signify the good life will love this paean to vegetables and minestrone soup. The rhyming text stumbles somewhat, but the watercolor and colored pencil illustrations, bordered with intricate vegetable patterns, are colorful and lively. A multicultural cast of children first fend off friendly farm animals while harvesting vegetables; next they cook soup; and finally, they enjoy their homegrown creation. A recipe is included.
