The Splendid Soybean Family

by Etsuyo Hashimoto

Comical, educational, mouth-watering: this book shows us how soybeans grow from seed into pod into bean-packed pods, before being picked and dried and turned into all manner of tasty and nutritious things, like soy sauce and tofu and soy milk. Then an encounter with azuki beans prompts the indomitable Soybean Prince to lead his soybean family on a global journey to meet other delicious beans from around the world.
