The Roots Of Our Food (Conscious Kids Collection)

Great book for young children to understand and appreciate the importance of nutritional food so as to encourage them to eat well. The book teaches them the source of natural healthy foods and in so doing hopefully they will be motivated to develop lifelong good eating habits. In today's largely urban society children are disconnected from agriculture. They consume too much artificial and processed foods. By understanding how vegetables and fruits are grown they will hopefully be more motivated to develop eating habits that will result in optimal physical, mental and emotional well-being. Recommended for parents and teachers to use.

This book is fun and educational. Very well written and illustrated. Pair this with a trip to your local farmers market and you have an excellent adventure for any kid.

This was a great book to compliment a recent trip berry picking with my 1.5 year old. Love the content, the realistic photos and the rhyming.

In a world with no shortage of children’s media that re-enforces consumerism, sugar-worship, toxic masculinity, heteronormative gender roles, racial bias, and tribalism, it’s refreshing to encounter material like this. Sustainable food-sourcing and healthy eating habits are crucial topics for children who will be facing a future of climate change and all that that entails (food shortages, environmental instability, unchecked commercial lobbying). They certainly won’t learn about these things in schools or from main-stream media. Yes, there are plenty of documentaries and books out there that cover these topics, but very few are written specifically for children. Let’s hope Aunt Dee Dee’s message spreads far and wide.

An amazing kids book complete with cute rhymes and colorful images! Help your children recognize different foods and how they grow with this. I’d read this to my little cousin any chance I could get, I know he’d love to point at the foods that he recognized. Beautiful photos and really nice layout. Would highly recommend!
