Includes bibliographical references.
Infused with jubilance and warmth, this luminous, lyrical picture book celebrates the people and the work that put food on our tables. Bread, milk, wool, fruits and vegetables: things that fill our day to day lives. But where and who, do they come from? Across wheat fields and city rooftop gardens, mushroom beds and maple forests, Thank a Farmer traces the food and clothing that a family uses back to the people who harvested and created them. With Maria Gianferrari's informed and poetic text and monumental artwork from Monica Mikai, Thank a Farmer gently emphasises the importance of agriculture in our day-to-day lives and reminds readers to give thanks to farmworkers around the world.
