The Farm That Feeds Us

Autor Nancy Castaldo Ilustrat de Ginnie Hsu
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 iul 2020 – vârsta până la 11 ani
The content will take a gentle approach to farming, looking at a small-scale, organic farm and how this can be sustainable and more in tune with nature. Throughout the book will run a thread exploring how, while it's the farm that feeds us, the farmer must also feed and care for the farm.

There will be much for the reader to explore in the book, whether reading cover-to-cover or dipping in and out. Some pages and spreads will just feature illustrations, while others will be a mix of text blocks and illustrations. Some spreads will take a more diagrammatical or catalogue approach, featuring, for example, the species of wildflower to be found in a fallow meadow, or the variety of chicken breeds.
