How Did That Get in My Lunchbox?: The Story of Food by Chris Butterworth and Lucia Gaggiotti

 

This story tells us how the food we eat traveled from the field to our local grocer.  The story shares how milk is made into cheese, how apples become juice, how wheat becomes bread, and how carrots are grown and harvested. The story illustrates steps used to produce some of the common foods. This behind-the-scenes look shows children that much more goes into getting our food for lunch than meets the eye!
