Cherries and cherry pits by Vera Williams

Bidemmi draws pictures and tells stories about cherries. Bidemmi makes up a series of stories from her vivid imagination and illustrates each story with her crayons. Each story that she tells has something to do with cherries and the discarded cherry pits, but she never quite finishes any one story until she begins telling one that involves herself. In her last story she imagines herself eating cherries and planting the cherry pits until they grow into an entire grove of cherry trees, abundant enough to feed everyone from Nairobi to Brooklyn and from Toronto to St. Paul.
