Yum! MmMm! Que Rico!

Mora, Pat. Yum! MmMm! Que Rico!: America's Sproutings. Illus. Rafael Lopez. New York: Lee & Low Books, Inc., 2007.

I thought this book was so interesting simply for the fact that I work with food everyday at my job. I have used several of foods mentioned in the book, so it was great to learn some background information on those items. I can definitely see this book being used in the classroom for several different lessons from teaching origins of foods to the several different uses of everyday food items as well as some of the more exotic food items, such as prickly pear.
