Review
This is a non-fiction picture book for K-3. It has good basic information that is well presented for the intended audience. There is one simple sentence per page, with labeled illustrations and information as needed on each page. For example, when the word botanist is used, above is "A botanist is a scientist who studies plants." Parts of the fruits are illustrated and clearly labeled. Included are what fruits are, why we eat them, how they grow, parts of various fruits, where they grow, home grown and large farms, harvesting and bringing to market. Colorful, informative, and fun to read.
Overall Book Score: very good
