Lit Week: Stone Soup
Stone Soup is a beautiful old folktale about sharing bringing abundance to all. We used this version by Jon Muth as a base for creating a soup from the harvest from our own garden on the first day of Autumn. This is a great activity to invite friends to join and contribute.
If you have the opportunity, boiling your Stone Soup over a bonfire is an extra cozy way to welcome Fall. We added this legend of the origin of fire from A Year Full of Stories, by Angela McAllister.
