In Series III of the Magic Box Tales & Truths, meet Samantha, born in America but traveled around the world for the USDA. Her stories are packed with global adventures and wise, poetic reflections on the benefits of wholesome, nourishing foods. Samantha’s tales encourage children to appreciate the richness of different cultures and see healthy eating as a delicious, worldwide adventure-beautifully expressed through rhythm and rhyme that make learning fun and memorable.Throughout this Series III as well as Series 11, Elizabeth and Series I, Maggie, children encounter stories about nature, seeds, and foods-like cherries, onions, and other treasures of nature-each one highlighting themes of hope, courage, and the magic of nourishment. The inclusion of poetry adds a lyrical touch, making stories more engaging and helping children connect emotionally with the lessons.
