A sparkling and deeply felt story of love, loss, renewal-and jam!-offering

a gentle reminder of the cyclical nature of the world around us.

A sparkling and deeply felt story of love, loss, renewal-and jam!-offering

a gentle reminder of the cyclical nature of the world around us.

If you ever have a mulberry tree, you'll climb branches and shake with all your might. You'll gather berries and smush fruits, while your dad boils jars in a tall, silver pot sweating and happy as the kitchen fills with steam. Because if you've ever had a mulberry tree, you know that the sweetest things are worth waiting for.

Sumptuous text and deliciously expressive illustrations come together to form a gentle ode to nature's bounty, to patience, and to one girl's lifelong connection to the tree in her yard.

Reviews for One More Jar of Jam

“Knowledge that comes with the caretaking and harvesting of trees, a seasonal scale, and affectionate images of an interracial family who share joy and loss together all flavor this personal-feeling tale.” –Publishers Weekly “A quiet, heartfelt picture book.” –Booklist
