"Informative, eye-catching. Peterson illuminates facts with comparisons that will grab kids’ attention. Lundquist’s sharp, close-up photographs of Clarabelle, her newborn calves, and the family who owns the farm, including a few elementary-age workers, will easily draw curious kids back into the science. A good addition to classroom units about foods’ origins, this handsome title makes a natural companion to Peterson’s Extra Cheese, Please! Mozzarella’s Journey from Cow to Pizza (1994)."
