Down to Earth: How Kids Help Feed the World (Orca Footprints)

Informative, varied, entertaining, eye-catching—there’s not much more you could ask of this unaffected piece of work.

"Packed with information about the many types of food grown and how domestic animals are raised around the world...The most interesting parts that spotlight children, however, are the inserts about the author's farm, Dark Creek Farm...[where] readers learn more personally engaging and specific information about aspects of food production which would favor roles for kids and which young readers could identify with...The greatest value in this book may be to change the perception of young readers still under the illusion that food comes from the nearest grocery store."— "CM Magazine"
