Books with title Where Food Comes From

We are students at Whitney M. Young Magnet High School in Chicago, Illinois. We are part of a Global Citizenship class at school where we learn about the United Nation's sustainable development goals. This year, we learned specifically about social and environmental benefits of ethical fashion. For the final project of the year, we created a children's book addressing why people should buy ethical clothing instead of fast fashion. Through this book, we hope to educate children and parents on the importance of ethical fashion.

Most of the time we buy food from stores, but stores get the food from somewhere too. With the help of easy-to-follow text and detailed diagrams, readers will visit farms and follow food on its journey to farmers markets, factories, and stores. Readers learn how fresh foods are sold in markets and are also used to make the processed foods we buy in stores. Vibrant photographs make this book a visual feast.

Grains, vegetables and fruits, meat, eggs, and dairy foodswhere do these different food groups come from? Children will discover such things as how grains are grown in fields, why vegetables are so good for us, where certain fruits grow, and the importance of pollination. A special section features two natural sweetenershoney and maple syrupand another section gives children suggestions for eating healthy foods, such as beans of all kinds and foods made with whole grains.
