Stone Soup

By Marcia Brown

Stone Soup is a classic folktale about resourcefulness, generosity, and community. When three hungry travelers arrive in a village where no one is willing to share food, they cleverly begin making “stone soup” in a pot of boiling water. Curiosity grows, and soon each villager adds a little something of their own—turning an empty pot into a meal for everyone. It’s a timeless story about the power of cooperation and how sharing what we have can create abundance for all.
