It's a song that teaches children about the hard work, expertise, and dedication that farmers put into delivering us the food we consume every day.

Old MacDonald Had a Farm by Gris Grimly (PreK-K)

Even though it's based on a well-known children's song, this storybook is anything from conventional.

There's little doubt that this book was a labor of passion for Grimly, whose joyous depiction of farm life shines through the pages.

Just Food: Where Locavores Get It Wrong and How We Can Truly Eat Responsibly

By James E. McWilliams

Today, we are bombarded with conflicting signals on how to eat an ethical diet, causing us to suffer from food anxiety. What do you think? How environmentally friendly is organic food? How may genetically modified foods benefit your health?

As Fast Food Nation did for fast food, Just Food challenges traditional viewpoints and cuts through layers of myth and misinformation to expose the truth about fresh food in the same way. An imported tomato, for example, uses less energy than a tomato grown in a local greenhouse. Freshwater fish farming may soon become the most sustainable source of protein.

Just Food is an eye-opening look at how we eat and the role it plays in the fight to feed the world and rescue the earth.

Rancher, Farmer, Fisherman: Conservation Heroes of the American Heartland

By Miriam Horn

Environmentalists are often reluctant to use the term because of its negative connotations. This is especially true of the men and women who are undertaking the most important environmental work right now, such as rebuilding America's grasslands, wildlife, soil, rivers, wetlands, and seas. It is their great affection for the area that motivates them: the iconic landscape where explorers and cowboys, pioneers and riverboat captains, established the American identity. They have a moral obligation to protect this natural asset and maintain the well-being of their own families and communities.

An epic journey down the Mississippi River is the setting for this look at stewardship from five different perspectives: a Montana rancher, Kansas farmer, riverman on the Mississippi River, a Louisiana shrimper, and an Alabama fisherman in the Gulf of Mexico. As Rancher, Farmer, Fisherman delves into the lives and work of its subjects, as well as the vital landscapes they conserve, it questions long-held assumptions about American culture and environmental ideals.
