This revised edition of Aliki's 1974 Green Grass and White Milk is an even more fun-filled and informative explanation of milk's trip from green grass, to cow, to a cool glass on the table.

Customer Reviews

Great Resource
This is a great resource for teachers and students. The book does a great job of explaining the milk process. After reading this book, it is easy to make butter by putting 1 tablespoon of heavy cream in a 35mm film case and shake it rapidly for 3-4 minutes until butter is formed! Kids and adults love to do it.

great book
This is a great book for learning about the whole process. Our 2.5 year old loves it although some parts are a little more complex than I had hoped they would be. We read it often, and he now knows milk comes from cows (and goats) and not just from the store. He will probably make us buy goat milk soon. :)

we love cows
my husband and i are dairy farmers in upstate new york, and this we found to be such a great book. we bought it for our grandkids last year and they never put it down. they ask to hear it every night before bed, and we are so thrilled that they enjoy it so.
