Energetic acrylic paintings enhance this story of an African-American family that saves their farm by selling sweet potato pies at the local Harvest Celebration. In a well-paced narrative, eight-year-old Sadie tells the story of each family member's contribution. A recipe for Mama's Sweet Potato Pie and Extra-Flaky Pie Crust is appended.
