Simone Goes to the Market A Children's Book of Colors Connecting Face and Food American kids need to be reintroduced to a fact that most of the rest of the world still knows: food can come from your neighbors. In fact, entering an age of increasing upheaval and uncertainty, that's about as good a gift as you can give your kid. And this charming book does the trick, elegantly and with great compassion.

Newborns instinctively connect food and face. But as we grow up this connection erodes or even disappears. This book is my contribution to the strengthening of this connection for our little ones. My hope is that you and your little ones will rediscover the texture, joy, and meaning found in eating food from your neighbors. The story takes the reader with Simone to the local farmer’s market as she meets the farmers and buys fresh, colorful produce from them. My book is relevant for all ages – for infants learning to focus on faces, small children learning colors, kindergartners learning to read, and all of us relearning the joy of eating locally. all photographs were taken at the Bellingham Farmers Market all text and photographs Copyright David Westerlund 2007-2008 To purchase or borrow a copy click here or e-mail me at: david@faceandfood.com ~ Author / Photographer, David Westerlund |
