From pasture to table

Aliki organizes this illustrated introduction to milk as a sequence of stages: cows grazing, milking, processing at a dairy, and foods made from milk. That route gives young readers a concrete way to connect an everyday drink with the farming and production steps behind it. Identified as a Level 2 title in the Let’s-Read-and-Find-Out series, the book is described as addressing concepts for children in the primary grades. Its subject stays focused on how milk travels from cow to carton and table.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Early elementary readers curious about where milk comes from
  • Children exploring farming, food production, or dairy foods
  • Families and classrooms seeking an illustrated nonfiction introduction to milk
