Have you ever walked through a grocery store and wondered how all that food got there?
Apples from orchards, milk from dairy farms, bread from bakeries, fish from the ocean, and bananas grown thousands of miles away somehow all arrive at the same place. But their journey begins long before they reach the shelves!
How Does Food Reach the Grocery Store? takes curious young readers on an incredible journey from farms, fields, factories, and oceans all the way to the grocery store.
Kids will discover how food is grown and harvested, cleaned and prepared, packaged, kept cold, loaded onto trucks, shipped across long distances, delivered to warehouses, and finally stocked on store shelves.
Along the way, they'll meet the farmers, factory workers, truck drivers, warehouse teams, and grocery store employees-and discover the amazing machines and transportation systems that help keep food moving.
With colorful illustrations and easy-to-understand explanations, this book transforms an ordinary trip to the grocery store into a fascinating look at the enormous system working behind the scenes.
Perfect for curious kids who love farms, trucks, food, machines, transportation, and discovering how everyday things work.
Part of the How the World Works series-educational books that reveal the amazing people, machines, and systems behind the world we see every day.
