Synopsis The Ugly Vegetables by : Grace Lin
In this charming story about celebrating differences a Chinese-American girl wishes for a garden of bright flowers instead of one full of bumpy, ugly, vegetables. The neighbors' gardens look so much prettier and so much more inviting to the young gardener than the garden of "black-purple-green vines, fuzzy wrinkled leaves, prickly stems, and a few little yellow flowers" that she and her mother grow. Nevertheless, mother assures her that "these are better than flowers." Come harvest time, everyone agrees as those ugly Chinese vegetables become the tastiest, most aromatic soup they have ever known. As the neighborhood comes together to share flowers and ugly vegetable soup, the young gardener learns that regardless of appearances, everything has its own beauty and purpose. THE UGLY VEGETABLES springs forth with the bright and cheerful colors of blooming flowers and lumpy vegetables. Grace Lin's playful illustrations pour forth with abundant treasures. Complete with a guide to the Chinese pronunciation of the vegetables and the recipe for ugly vegetable soup! Try it . . . you'll love it, too!

Synopsis Vegetables in Underwear by : Jared Chapman
A bunch of friendly vegetables wear colorful underwear of all varieties—big, small, clean, dirty, serious, and funny—demonstrating for young ones the silliness and necessity of this item of clothing. The unexpectedness of vegetables in their unmentionables is enough to draw giggles, but the pride with which the “big kid” attire is flaunted in front of the baby carrots in diapers will tickle readers of all ages. With rhyming text that begs to be chanted aloud and art that looks good enough to eat, this vibrant story will encourage preschoolers to celebrate having left those diapers behind!

Synopsis Vegetables and Fruits by : Thomas S. C. Li
The modern synthetic diet, formulated to appeal to our inherent attraction to sugar, salt, fats, and calories at the expense of nutrition, leaves us over-fed and under-nourished. A considerable portion of chronic human diseases, including diabetes and heart disease, appear to be related largely to a diet that is inadequate in the essential vitamins

Synopsis Ugly Food by : Richard Horsey
Why don't we eat more octopus? Cheeks and feet are good value and delicious, so why do people prefer fillet or chops? What about rabbits and squirrels? And what's wrong with ugly vegetables?The food industry, like the fashion industry, seems driven by the pursuit of impossible perfection: pre-packaged meats with nary a head, foot or set of giblets in sight, and supermarkets stacked with rows of blemish-free fruit and vegetables. But the same ingredients that are neglected, overlooked, and forgotten, are also tasty, sustainable and cheap.Ugly Food aims to change the way people think about food, revealing the tips and tricks you need to prepare undervalued ingredients with ease. Alongside recipes, Horsey and Wharton provide social histories of foods that are positively brimming with fascinating facts, fictions and flavours. Recipes include: Ox-Cheek Salad a la Hongroise, Lao Chicken Feet Salad, Maldivian Curried Octopus, Spiced Squirrel Popcorn, Deep-fried Rabbit Ears, Sheep's Brain on Toast, and Char Siu Pigs' Cheeks.
