From orchard to table

Gail Gibbons’s illustrated introduction organizes fruit facts around the journey from plant to plate. It covers the parts of fruits, where and how they grow, and what happens during harvesting and processing, before turning to where fruits are bought and how they can be included in a healthy diet. Examples range from berries, apples, melons, and grapes to citrus and bananas. The book’s practical sequence connects basic plant science with familiar foods and everyday shopping and eating.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 exploring nonfiction about food and plants
  • Young readers curious about how fruit is grown, harvested, and sold
  • Families and educators looking for an illustrated introduction to fruits
