Stone Soup

These cold and rainy days have been perfect soup weather!

Stone Soup
Marcia Brown 2011

Retold dozens of times, the version of this folktale by Marcia Brown is the one I remember most from my childhood.  Told with just three colors and loose drawings, it's the classic story of a village that comes together (hesitantly at first) to make a big pot of soup out of "stones".  I often think of this story when I'm making soup for dinner out of just what I can find in my cupboards!
