What's Amara's Farm About

Publisher Summary

Amara searches for pumpkins on her farm in this vibrant exploration of gardening and healthy eating, from the Where in the Garden? series. Amara is hosting a potluck for friends on her farm, and she needs help finding her pumpkins to serve a tasty dish. What do we know about pumpkins? They’re large, round, and orange–and, wait a minute, is that a pumpkin? No, that’s an apple. Where, oh, where could those pumpkins be? Can you help Amara find them in time for her potluck? The first title in the Where in the Garden? picture book series stars Amara, a young Black girl who explores the crops growing on her family’s intergenerational farm. Playful text guides young readers to hunt for visual clues and compare and contrast the unique characteristics of pumpkins against okra, cauliflower, eggplant, and other produce that grows on Amara’s farm. Artist Samara Hardy brings this multi-layered story to life with vivid, cheerful illustrations created from layers of hand painted ink and watercolor texture. Back matter includes a yummy molasses pumpkin bread recipe for little chefs and their adult helpers to try together.
