The cooking of a healthy breakfast moves from parent-child bonding
to an eloquent conversation about energy, the growth of plants, and
the miraculous ways the sun's light nourishes us all. It began with
the sun, Who showers the earth With heat and light- Tiny packets of
energy. How does a home-cooked breakfast give a little girl the
energy she needs for a brand-new day? In gently expressive
language, her mother takes readers on a journey into the earth
where sleepy seeds are tickled awake and grow into golden oats;
into blueberry patches, where green leaves break apart water and
air to build sweet sugar; and into a pasture where sun becomes
grass, becomes cow, becomes milk. Author Laura Alary's free verse
breaks big ideas into child-sized pieces, making Sun in My Tummy an
accessible introduction to the concepts of matter and energy, and
how the sun's light becomes fuel for our bodies through the food we
eat. Andrea Blinick's mixed-media illustrations pair the cozy and
homelike with the glowing and dramatic as she takes readers from
the kitchen to the farm field and to the sky and back. A concluding
Author's Note shares further information about photosynthesis for
young readers. "This book is as essential as sunshine; the
absolutely beautiful STEM story is as absorbing as photosynthesis
itself." -School Library Journal Starred Review "Toronto author
Laura Alary's poetic rumination about how the sun nourishes us all
offers food for thought. The sunny and bright mixed-media
illustrations from Andrea Blinick are inviting."-Quill & Quire
