Bread Is for Eating

Author: David and Phillis Gershator
Publisher: Henry Holt, 1995
Tags: Bilingual, Grade: 1, Grade: K

In this tribute to bread, Mamita explains to her son how bread is created step-by-step from seed to grain and from farmer to baker. After describing each step Mamita sings the refrain of a song, “El Pan Es Para Comer” (Bread Is for Eating). After thanking nature “for the bread that gives us life,” the son joins Mamita in singing the refrain. The rhythmic text is accompanied by wonderfully textured folk art filled with detail. Lyrics in English along with a musical arrangement are provided so readers can join the refrain.
