Little Receipts Vol. 4 — Yum! Stories from Our Kitchens and Gardens (Kid-Friendly Edition — EPUB Edition)

George Washington Carver finds use after use for peanuts and sweet potatoes, so tired soil and tired farms get a second chance — and no, he did not invent peanut butter; this book will show you what he really did, which is plenty. Edna Lewis cooks by the seasons, the way her family taught her in Freetown. Church kitchens bake and fry to pay for schoolbooks and bus rides. Augustus Jackson becomes known for ice cream — told carefully, because only a little about him was written down. Gardens behind the house keep seeds that traveled far. And Leah Chase feeds a whole city — and a movement — one pot of gumbo at a time.

All 6 chapters, full text (4,704 words). Every chapter ends with The Receipt — a one-line takeaway a child can repeat — and a short 'Where we learned this' note, so a grown-up can check every story. The clean EPUB edition (KID-FRIENDLY EDITION), readable on any e-reader, tablet, or phone.
