Fiction. Drawn with pastals. Gives students more information on science. A simple description of how corn was discovered and used by the Indians and how it came to be an important food throughout the world. Great for grades k-3.

seek out more knowledge through books. Students from South and Central America, as well as students with some American Indian ancestry, my be fascinated that their roots go back so far, and that they made such a contribution. Non-fiction, but with the nice pictures and novel information, it reads like a little story. Good book. Show Less
