“This baker makes his bread from scratch by sowing wheat in his backyard patch." The rhyming text in this remarkable picture book seems so simple, but it's packed with information. Every step in the making of a loaf of bread--from sowing, harvesting, and threshing the wheat, to milling the grains into flour and mixing and baking the dough--is beautifully detailed in compelling close-up photographs. An afterword provides further information, including a simple recipe.
