This book works very well for teaching human, natural and capital resources to third graders. We read the book aloud, and then went back and categorized all the resources used to make a tortilla.
HONORING THE CYCLE OF LIFE
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Simply but movingly Gary Paulsen honors the cycle of life. Beginning with the earth, the seeds, and then the plants, he traces the making of flour and then bread. Thirty-two illustrations in ripe harvest colors add a richness to his story.
A lovely story

I found this at our local library and it's one of my 3 year old son's favorite books. I've now bought a copy because he knew it by heart after we returned our library copy. I've read other Gary Paulsen books and have enjoyed them as well, but this simple story with it's beautiful illustrations is one of our family favorites.
