Synopsis:

Did you know table olives are picked green and change color as they’re processed?

Join award-winning photojournalist and agriculture specialist Kathy Coatney on an exciting journey into the world of olives. Through vibrant real-life photographs and easy-to-read text, kids will visit Farmer Nick and Farmer Charlie—the olive guys—and discover how olives are grown, harvested, and transformed into the foods we love.

Learn how olives go from tree to table while exploring the farming process—along with fun and fascinating facts along the way.

Book 3 in the From the Farm to the Table series, this book is perfect for second- and third-grade readers, featuring age-appropriate vocabulary to make learning fun and engaging.

About the Author: Kathy Coatney has spent long hours behind the lens of a camera wading through rice paddies, dairies and orchards during her twenty-five year career as a photojournalist specializing in agriculture. She and her husband grow table olives and her family roots in agriculture run four generations deep, so Kathy knows farming from the ground up. Concerned that kids today don’t have the exposure to farms and rural life that teaches them how their food is produced, she envisioned a new direction for her writing and launched From the Farm to the Table, a series of nonfiction children’s books about agriculture. Kathy also loves—and writes—deeply emotional, small-town contemporary romances. Visit her website at: http://www.kathycoatney.com/
