There's only one problem: he's completely out of carrots! His journey, which begins as a quest for carrots, evolves into a story about the importance of sharing with others. Illustrator Talitha Shipman brings this story to life through her sweet, vivid illustrations.

Now available just in time for the holidays, Jared's Last Carrot is now available in Spanish as La última zanahoria de Jared.

Jared se despierta con un gruñido en la panza.

Hambriento y alentado por un sueño especialmente
delicioso, decide que una montaña alta de esponjosos
panqueques de zanahoria es justo lo que necesita.

Solo que parece que hay un gran problema: ¡se le han
terminado las zanahorias!

¿Qué hará?

¿Alguien lo ayudará?

¿O acaso su sueño de devorar panqueques de
zanahoria será solo eso: un sueño?"

Author Sara Devine lives in Teaneck, New Jersey. She sings and writes books and music, performing all over the world as a backup vocalist for other artists as well as for her own music. Most importantly, Sara is a mom to her two children, Ella and Olivia. She grew up as the 9^th child from a family of ten children where food was always a focal point and, thankfully, always available.

She wants this book to help any parents hoping to reinforce good morals of friendship and sharing with their children.
