(3) K-3 In this homage to local, small-scale farming, a boy shopping with his mother at the farmers' market describes the sources of the items they buy. The narrative alternates between conventional picture book storytelling and detailed (somewhat lengthy) descriptions of food production. McClure's intricate cut-paper illustrations successfully express her appreciation for fresh food and the people who cultivate it.
