Praise for Fabulous Fruit
"Making delicious and nutritious fruit the main characters of a book for kids is a great way to bring these beauties into the lives of so many. So much processed food and sugar is consumed in the Western culture; it is essential that we emphasize how lucky we are to have so many naturally sweet things to eat. As a teacher, I see so much of our youth eating foods that are not beneficial to their physical and mental growth due to lack of availability and exposure to natural foods. Fabulous Fruit expresses the beauty and simplicity of fruit; a seed in one's hand turns into a plant gifting fruit.... Grateful for this lovely book full of color, poetry, and wholesome goodness."
—Michelle Berzack, Private Chef, Vegetable Grower, Science Teacher
"This beautifully illustrated book is a wonderful way to begin consciously and subconsciously teaching our children about healthy and vibrant foods. My two boys, ages 4 and 7, were intrigued and engaged. I love books where we can pause and have a chat about it in the middle. Highly recommended!"
—Natalie Sager, The Modern Hippie Mama, Co-Author of Peaceful Mama: The Mind, Body & Baby Connection
Synopsis
Dedicated to our Earth, this cheerfully illustrated 28-page book introduces children to the magical processes of planting seeds and growing fruit, through its multi-sensory exploration of the diverse and vibrant qualities of fruit. It also teaches lessons in human diversity, community, and acceptance with its statement: "Fruits are like us, each unique and quirky with our own color, size and shape. Every fruit has a place at the table and we love them all!"
In addition Fabulous Fruit promotes care of the planet. "If fruit could talk, we believe they would tell us that with each generation, we can create communities that work to take care of our Earth," say the author and illustrator in a message to readers.
FEATURING A TEACHING BONUS... Fabulous Fruit concludes with a creative two-page spread designed to teach children the names and shapes of 23 different fruits, by allowing young readers to match fruits' colors and shapes to their names.
As such, this book leaves readers of all ages exclaiming, "Fabulous!"
