[Stephanie Pieck · Rating 2 out of 5]

Written in a kid-friendly style, this book explains the processes plants use to create fruits we eat. Features chapters on bananas, pineaplles, melons, grapes, and berries. Each chapter ends with a recipe for kids to try. The Braille book was disappointing because although it contained keys for diagrams and perhaps maps, no diagrams and maps were included.

[CFAITC]

Examines the discovery and migration of bananas, berries, and melons, as well as their roles in cooking, technology, and world cultures.
