The book is about a young girl, Clare who is full of questions, about the food she eats. In the book, the listener will follow her adventures as she sets out to learn about how vegetables grow.

She plants and tends to the growth of a tomato plant and is thrilled when the first tomato appears, but she is concerned about what will happen when it ripens.

Clare's Tomato is an entertaining children's story. It's also a chance for them to learn where food comes from and how they can play a part in providing food for their families.
