* MOONBEAM GOLD AWARD * * GROWING GOOD KIDS AWARD FOR EXCELLENCE IN CHILDREN'S LITERATURE, AMERICAN HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY AND NATIONAL MASTER JUNIOR GARDENER PROGRAM * Milk doesn't just appear in your refrigerator, nor do apples grow in the bowl on the kitchen counter. Before We Eat has been adopted by the USDA’s Agriculture in the Classroom program. Before we eat, many people work very hard―planting grain, catching fish, tending farm animals, and filling crates of vegetables. With vibrant illustrations by Caldecott Medalist Mary Azarian, this book reminds us what must happen before food gets to our tables to nourish our bodies and spirits. This expanded edition of Before We Eat includes back-of-book features about school gardens and the national farm-to-school movement.

Good story & Info
I bought this book to read with my granddaughter. She's always interested in knowing where things come from, and "how did that get there?" This book helps her to learn those things. The pictures are wonderful and Ellie also likes the sturdy pages that makes it easy to turn the pages.

Engaging for students
Super book for PreK students as there are clean pictures and similar cadence on each page. A great book about who brings our food to us.

Real food, not junk food.
Kids will eat healthier diets when they can see where their food comes from.

Good book
This book was recommended by a friend as it has beautiful illustrations and helps kids to understand the food source. However, several of our amazon book deliveries have arrived damaged so sadly this is being returned too.
