"An engaging description of how corn was found by Indian farmers thousands of years ago (and) how corn is grown and used today. A successful blend of social studies, science, and history . . . augmented by accurate diagrams and cheerful illustrations".--"School Library Journal".

What's so great about corn?

Popcorn, corn on the cob, cornbread, tacos, tamales, and tortillas. All of these and many other good things come from one amazing plant. Aliki tells the story of corn: How Native American farmers thousands of years ago found and nourished a wild grass plant and made it an important part of their lives. They learned the best ways to grow and store and use its fat yellow kernels. And then they shared this knowledge with the new settlers of America.
