"Fernandez enthusiastically narrates Martin’s picture-book biography of Will Allen, the professional
basketball player who became an urban farmer. Fernandez uses a voice that is clear and well modulated,
and he reads slowly enough for young readers to follow along in the book. He switches emotions easily,
from jolly, when talking about Allen’s personality, to discouraged, when talking about the polluted soil of
his city lots. The narration is backed by related sound effects..." Booklist

Read by Eva Kaminsky, this fifth title of author Jacqueline Briggs Martin's award winning "Food Heroes" series features Farmer Eva Sommaripa, who founded Eva's Garden in South Dartmouth, Massachusetts, a place "so close to the ocean, she can smell the sea, so close to woods she can talk to trees." More than 50 years later she has grown a big green garden life of friends and neighbors, creatures that crawl, fly and slither, even microbes that create rich soil in the brown underground. One of the first picture books to focus on a woman farmer, this is also a fascinating story connecting farming with nature, ecology, and science. With an Afterword and Author's Note written and read by Eva Sommaripa, Back Matter and Resource page.
