The Biography of Tomatoes


Morganelli, Adrianna. The Biography of Tomatoes. Crabtree Publishing: 2007. ISBN: 9780778724940.

Tomatoes grew wild in South America and were spread to Central America by the Mayans and the Aztecs. Tomatoes were used in the world's largest food fight. 110 million tomatoes are harvested each year. Tomatoes were the main food for the Mayans. People use tomatoes to make ketchup. I recommend this book for ages 11-15.
