The Walking Vegetables

"Eat your vegetables." We've all heard someone say that, but have we thought about how many different ways there are to eat vegetables? Have we thought about how many other things we can do with vegetables, or studied the lives of people who have made vegetables the basis for many inventions?Kathy Carman Henderson retells part of an old Hmong story from Southeast Asia. This book is designed to have children's illustrations inserted; the child becomes the illustrator. It starts with helps for the illustrator and closes with ideas for teachers and parents to expand the learning by teaching problem solving and many other subjects with the help of vegetables.
