“Soldiers are always hungry. But we have little enough for ourselves.“
Stone Soup is classic TL written and illustrated by Marcia Brown and based on an old French story. Like much of TL, it is meant to entertain and teach a lesson. This tale is about three hungry soldiers who trick villagers into feeding them by inventing “stone soup.” This is a great story when teaching elementary students about honesty and kindness. https://www.scholastic.com/teachers/blog-posts/shari-carter/stone-soup-lesson-sh...
