Description:

Three hungry soldiers march into a small French village, but the wary villagers have hidden away every scrap of food. Undeterred, the clever soldiers announce they'll make soup from nothing but water and stones — and slowly, curiosity gets the better of the villagers, who each contribute a little something: a carrot, a cabbage, some meat, until a full feast comes together. A witty retelling of a classic French folktale, celebrating generosity, community, and clever thinking, brought to life with lively, festive illustrations.
