[ISLMA-Share] Books on hunger

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

*The Good Garden* by Milway : the inspiring story of one struggling farming
family in Honduras and their journey to growing enough food to meet their
needs. Based on the real story of farm transformation underway in Honduras
and many other countries, this book offers children ways they can be part
of the movement to grow "good gardens" and foster food security.
