Synopsis
Before we eat, many people must work very hard--planting grain, catching fish, tending animals, and filling crates. In this book, vibrantly illustrated by Caldecott Medalist Mary Azarian, readers find out what must happen before food can get to our table to nourish our bodies and spirits.

Review
With beguiling illustrations and a lovely spare text, this book will inspire conversations with young children about the origins of their food and start them on the path to being careful stewards of the environment.--Anne K. Fishel, Ph.D., Co-founder, The Family Dinner Project, Associate Clinical Professor, Harvard Medical School
A simple poem thanking the people who grow, transport, sell and prepare our food is transformed by Azarian's bright woodcuts... A warm celebration of both small farms and the idea that it takes a village to feed a child. (Picture book. 2-6)
Cultivating an attitude of gratitude as a healthy thing to do. In recent years much has been published about the numerous benefits of being grateful. The webmd.com article on gratefulness says that gratitude reduces stress and boosts the immune system, both of which improve quality of life all the way around. ...The book is a thoughtful examination of where food comes from-- that is before is gets to the grocery store. ...Pages show people engaged in every manner of food production: plowing, planting, harvesting, milking, egg gathering, packing and weighing crates, driving delivery trucks and cashiering at the grocery store. It is a wonderfully inclusive and honest way to view food acquisition.--Jennifer Prince
