Description:
Sunday is market day. We are looking for pumpkin, apples, eggs, and bread. What else will we find? Where did it come from? And what will we make with it?
Learn all about produce in this delightful child’s tour of a food market, full of fun facts, delicious new discoveries, and charming characters.
A loving ode to the people who bring food to our table and connection to our community, from acclaimed artist Alice Oehr.
My View:
A prefect first reader! This book of bold bright colours with eye catching stylised images is the prefect book for your first readers
(or bubs who sit on your laps as you read and point out) and talk about the markets, fruits and vegetables, shopping. Great for discussions about colours, shapes, counting, and general language development.
I do love the colour pop and the stylised images! Your little one will love it too.
Reading, Writing and Riesling 
It sounds delightful, Carol, and what a great way to introduce kids to thinking about where their food comes from, and how to get fresh food. I’ll bet the illustrations are great, too. I wonder if it’ll spark kids’ interest in preparing food, too…
I just love the bright colours in this one – engage and they will learn
