Finally, a kid's book that promotes plant-based eating As the title suggests, The Roots Of Our Food takes an inquisitive child on a journey to discover the origins of their meal. The kid encounters a farmer who explains how seeds grow into fruits, veggies, and more. Farmer Joe also teaches young readers about green practices such as shopping at farmer's markets, buying locally, and the importance of families cooking whole foods together. Although The Roots Of Our Food does not mention the word vegan, it has deliberately excluded farm animals, meat, and animal-derived foods and instead celebrates plant-based eating. Mindfulness, gratitude and compassion are themes of this rhyming story.
