There's nothing like the sounds and smells of the first farmers
market of the year. The sweetness of fresh fruits and local
vegetables permeates the air and breathes new life into our recipes
just as the spring brings new life to the earth. This illustrated
tale follows the budding friendship between two girls who meet at
their local farmers market and reminds us that food is the great
unifier of all humankind. When a farm family brings their spring
crops to a city farmers market, the farmer's daughter befriends the
daughter of a neighbourhood family doing their weekly shopping.
Over the course of a year, the girls explore the bounty of each
season. Sweet spring strawberries and crisp, fresh greens make way
for corn on the cob, peppers, and a rainbow of tomatoes. Fall
brings pumpkin patches and the crunch of apples. The friends part
at the final winter market, already looking forward to the sweet
red strawberries that will unite them again next spring. Katherine
Pryor's lyrical celebration of seasonal local foods is brought to
life by Polina Gortman's portrait of a growing friendship between
two children from seemingly different worlds. Spring Is for
Strawberries reminds us to seek pleasure in the changing harvests
around us, and that all things -- even friendships -- have seasons
worth waiting for.
