A Year in Fleurville: recipes from balconies, rooftops, and gardens
Felicita Sala
- Reading
- Browse by season rather than reading cover to cover. Pick one recipe, check its ingredients and steps together, and use the seasonal guide to extend the activity into gardening or food discussion.
- Themes
- Seasonal food: Recipes progress through the year and include ingredients such as peas, asparagus, basil, cherries and cucumbers, alongside a seasonal produce guide. The book presents this mainly as information or explanation.
- Growing and making food: The book addresses growing and making food; the detail of how it is developed remains unclear. Gardening and cooking are presented as linked practical activities, but the book’s treatment of effort, access and responsibility is not established.
- Worth knowing
- Choose a recipe or seasonal ingredient to explore together, then look at the gardening section. An adult can help interpret instructions and decide which kitchen or gardening tasks are suitable.
