Description
"I like to eat, eat, eat." Johnny sings as he watched Grandma in the kitchen. Field potatoes, wild ice, fruit salad, fresh sweet rolls - what a feast! Johnny can hardly contain his excitement. In no time, he'll be digging in with everyone else, filling his belly with all this good food.
But wait. First there is the long drive to the community center. And then an even longer Ojibwe prayer. And then - the elders eat first, no matter how hungry the youngsters are. Johnny lingers with Grandma, worried that the tasty treats won't last. Seats at the tables fill and refill. Platters are emptied and then replaced. Will it ever be their turn? And will there be enough?
