FOOD! We all need it to live – and here is a book bursting with information, questions and ideas about the food we eat, where it comes from and how it is shared.
Is there enough food to go round? Do some countries have too much? Should we all eat organic food or go vegetarian? Where does the food on our plates start from and how does it get to us? Is farming making climate change worse – and, most important of all, how can we feed everyone on our planet, now and in the future?
Created by bestselling superstars Mary Hoffman and Ros Asquith, the team behind The Great Big Books series, this is a brilliant, inspirational and diverse exploration of FOOD, with witty and thought-provoking illustrations.
"With its lively illustrations and a dash of humour , it breaks down complex issues in an accessible way for 4-7 year olds and its ideal for sparking discussions in EYFS. Highly recommended."
* School Reading List *"Mary Hoffman’s engaging style makes a wealth of information easily digestible for primary age readers and Ros Asquith’s droll illustrations help keep the tone of the whole book light and inviting. A thought-provoking book that offers a wealth of discussion topics."
* Red Reading Hub *"A great book for primary classes learning about food. Offering essential information about the basics of food, while raising important issues, it could be used as a stimulating nonfiction class read-aloud. Much discussion would be generated by considering the alien character’s questions. This book both informs and empowers children by raising awareness that they can take action to ensure there is food for all."
* Just Imagine *"Here is a beautiful hardback for everyone to enjoy, and which delves into a subject affecting us all... I highly recommend this publication for home and school libraries."
* Books for Keeps (5 star review) *"This is such an insightful book, which would be a superb teaching aid for a Key Stage 2 science topic on plants and living things... it encourages young readers to think critically about where food comes from, who gets access to it, and how we can build a better, more sustainable future for everyone." * Reading Zo
