Publisher Description
"Dad says we are going to grow vegetable soup." So begins Lois Ehlert’s bright, bold picture book about vegetable gardening for the very young. The necessary tools are pictured and labeled, as are the seeds (green bean, pea, corn, zucchini squash, and carrot). Then the real gardening happens . . . planting, weeding, harvesting, washing, chopping, and cooking! In the end? "It was the best soup ever." Ehlert’s simple, colorful cut-paper-style illustrations are child-friendly, as is the big black type. A recipe for vegetable soup tops it all off!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Using her characteristically vibrant palette, Ehlert details the raising of a vegetable garden to make ``the best soup ever.'' A recipe is included in this book which PW termed a ``zesty introduction to vivid abstract art.'' Ages 2-7.
