Pie Takes Time
Davey doesn’t want cake for his birthday—he wants pumpkin pie. But not just any pie. He wants to grow his pumpkin himself. From seed to slice, Pie Takes Time follows Davey as he waits for his seeds to grow into pumpkins, watching and wondering as he does the work necessary to make his birthday pie dream into a reality
With help from his family, Davey learns that good things take patience and hard work. A gentle, garden-to-kitchen story for kids who love digging in the dirt—and into a delicious pie.
Help us plant seeds of patience and diligence in young minds across the country!
