KIND WORDS FROM READERS
“
"Nicely written and designed, this book shares the pleasure of taking kids or grandkids to the local Farmers' Market. My favorite 3-year-old happily pointed out favorite and not-so-favorite foods and giggled at length about the petting zoo.”
"Farmers Market is an attractive book for children that shows and tells the goodness of buying and trading goods from local farms and ranches. Nicely illustrated and with large text... each page is an invitation for readers to continue. Farmers Market belongs in the children’s section of every library and the library of every child’s school.”

“
"A wonderful guide for children who already know about farmers markets to help better appreciate these events. At the same time, it opens the door of discovery of the markets to those who have not yet experienced a visit. Presented in a tone that is fun and educational; not “teachy”.
