If you really wanted to grow a pizza, you'd need a wheat field, a cow, a pig, a vegetable garden... and you'd run out of room quickly! The sensible narrator advises each child gardener to start small, and they all gain an appreciation for fresh ingredients by the end of each book. A young girl wants to grow her own pie, learns where the many ingredients come from, and grows a fruit tree. Includes kid-friendly apple pie recipe.
