Overview
The bestselling picture book now in an enhanced edition with four pages of activity prompts and discussion questions
In a garden outside a Kenyan schoolhouse, children are working together to harvest the vegetables they have grown and make them into a soup for everyone to share. But Kioni is having trouble: her herd of mischievous goats followed her to school today, and they are trying to make their own lunch out of the vegetable garden! The ensuing chaos is cleverly resolved by the children, making their vegetable soup very tasty while saving Kioni's four-legged intruders at the same time.
Using
rollicking verse with echoes of "Mary had a Little Lamb,"

lively story for young readers is graced with Alma's stunning primitive paper
sculpture art—the first book she chose to illustrate herself using this unique
style. Don't miss the soup recipe at the end of the story!
NEW in this edition: four pages of extra back matter on growing food, celebrating communities around the world, creating collage art, and making connections beyond the text.
