Off to the Market Alice Oehr

A celebration of the joy of markets, cooking, and food.

Sunday is market day. We are looking for eggs, pumpkin, fruit, and bread. What will we find first? Where did it come from? And what will we make with it?

Learn all about produce and where it comes from in this delightful child's tour of the farmers' market, full of fun facts, delicious new foods, and charming characters.

A loving ode to the people who bring food to our table and connection to our community, from the acclaimed artist Alice Oehr. A gorgeous gift for young children to inspire a lifelong love of food. A wonderful resource for educators and librarians to help students build visual and produce literacy, connecting words for a broad array of produce with images of it, and building a sense of curiosity about trying new foods. Just right for fans of Louise Elhert's classics Market Day and Eating the Alphabet, and Chris Butterworth and Lucia Gaggiotti's How Did That Get in My Lunchbox?
