Sylvia's Spivens hates spinach. Bleh! But what will the picky eater do when her teacher hands her spinach seeds to plant in the school garden? Will it be joy--or agony? Join Sylvia as she discovers the magic of growing food from the ground up and what happens when you give something new a try. Katherine Pryor loves eating spinach sautéed, stir-fried, steamed, or straight from the garden. In addition to writing, Katherine manages a program to bring local and healthy food to Washington state hospitals. She is the co-founder of South Park Fresh Starts, which grows vegetable starts for a food bank in Seattle. This is her first children's book. Learn more about Katherine at katherinepryor.com.
