Two kids learn about how cows produce milk, how milk is processed, and about all the different dairy products.

Summary:
This book is a very informative book for children on the process that is taken for milk. It starts on the farm and makes its way to the store but this entails various steps. The book also gives examples of other ways milk is used and manufactured.

Personal Reflection:
I thought this book was very well written and is easy for children to understand. There is quite the process that goes into a carton of milk and I think this is the perfect book to help children to understand this process.

Extension Ideas:
1. Bring a cooler to school with difference things that are made of milk. Cheese, ice cream bars, and milk are some of the things that could be brought.
2. This would be a perfect book to be read before going on a field trip to an ice cream company. In Oklahoma Braums gives many ice cream tours. This would be a perfect place for the students to see the cows in the pasture and the process of the manufacturing in the company. Another option would be finding a local farmer and asking for a tour of how the process works. This would help the hands-on learners to see it in person.
3. Have the students write a paragraph about what they’ve learned about milk

Summary
This book entails about how milk is being process from the farm to the stores. The book gives insight on how other products are made from milk. The process that some products go through to manufacture.

Personal Reaction:
I will never make fun of farmers ever again. These people go through a lot to get product out to the customers. I know they put their heart and soul into everything that comes off the farm. Yes they have machines to move along the progress, great work is done to receive good product.

Classroom Extension Ideas:

1.Take kids to the farm to see the process of making milk.

2.Ask some kids in class do they know any farmers? If so have them for show and tell. ( )

What a cool book to show kids how milk is made and where it comes from. Introduces the process of where is comes from, how to milk cows and how it is made into the milk they like to drink. Would bring great discussion about who likes milk, who has drank milk before. You can talk about chocolate milk and how you make that as well! ( )

I believe this is a great book to introduce a science concept to young children. It follows the path of milk from the cows in the pasture all the way to the cartons in the store. This book gives children a chance to see a different side of things they see everyday. ( )
