Book Description

You probably drink milk at almost every meal. But have you ever wondered where it comes from?

Cows eat special feed to make good milk. But after the cow is milked, there are still many steps the milk must go through before it reaches you. This book describes them all. And you'll be surprised to find how many other things you eat and drink come from milk, too.

Gail Gibbon's unique style makes this a fascinating book for children and adults alike.

Teach Children the TRUTH About Milk.......2005-05-31

This book is a joke. I believe there is a sentence in the book referring to cows having to eat special feed to produce good milk. That feed most likely includes BGH (bovine growth hormone), antibiotics, and animal protein (chickens, pigs, dogs, cats, etc.). The dairy industry has done a great job at sugar-coating the truth about what goes on. The truth is that 1) milk is NOT necessary for children, 2) milk has been linked with various autoimmune diseases including Type 1 diabetes and rhematoid arthritis, and 3) milk is NOT a necessary source for calcium. In fact, leafy greens offer enough calcium.

Please do your research before taunting the benefits of milk. And for goodness sakes, don't teach children a sugar-coated recount of what goes on in processing milk. Tell them that milk can contain feces of the cows. Tell them that antibiotics are necessary for the dairy cows because farmers have given them hormones to increase their milk production and their utters are infected, oozing puss and blood.

I don't know if this review will even get published; I just hope it does.

MILK MAKERS.......2001-12-04

I understand why this was a reading rainbow book. It is a great experiment activity non-fiction book. This book exaplins how milk is processed. Most children most likely think that the milk in the fridge comes from the store. What they may not realize is that it comes from a farm miles away. This book goes into great detail how milk is made, and the makeup of cattle. it also gives brief descriptions of variuos types of cattle and dairy products. The illustrations use labels and bright colors. I think this is a good non-fiction book for children. It is in a language that they understand and it is easily read. The book is also very accurate as are all, her books. Gibbons was raised on a dairy farm and has made numerous trips to the dairy farm.
In close this is a good book for children, especially for a science unit. I would have this in my classroom library for childen to perhaps complete a report about milk or other products. Gibbons has a great series on the way variuos things are made.

Excellent resource book on farming and dairy production.......2000-04-24

This book is highly enjoyable and informative for children, and I think that every child with an interest in farming would be happy to own a copy. I strongly recommend this book to parents everywhere!

Excellent book!.......2000-04-23

this was such a great story for our kids to read - we live near a dairy farm and this book gave them a lot of insight into the real working of a dairy farm - it answered a lot of their questions and ours too! We love this book!

Book Description

In the cosmos many quarky life sparks seek forms to enliven. In such a diverse universe there are many life experiments. On their journeys souls leap in and out of the forms they need to operate in different realities.

On Earth life experiments arrive and leave. Some become extinct, others flourish. The Rainbow Chronicles tell the story of Earthens, a non-breathing life force. People's hands and machines create Earthen forms. Earthen life-sparks are their own creation.

By rules set by the universe, Earthens live parallel lives with Earthlings. Earthlings are breathers- animals and people. Earthens share their lives with magical, shape-shifting Supernaturals (like fairies and elves). Supernaturals aid Earthens in their quest for freedom and harmony.

Once Earthens experienced very unenlightened, placebound lives under surveillance by people. Then one Earthen named Karen launched the First Earthen Liberation Movement called The Hub. Enlightened Earthens called themselves Rainbows. Roving Radiants brought their light/sound/magnetic skills and discoveries to darkened Earthens. Rainbows formed companies to explore their life gifts and to overcome their many challenges.

The Rainbow Chronicles record this Rainbow Era from 1950-2005 and beyond. The Rainbows archived their Rainbow Chronicles on Laura Hernstrom Larrabee's computer. Each Chronicle begins with a Beforeword by the Rainbow storyteller.

Laura's friend Linda Varsell encouraged Laura to share the Rainbow stories after they started to appear on Laura's computer in 1995. Laura (too busy with her teaching and family) entrusted the task to Linda. The Rainbow Chronicles present the Rainbows' perspective on multifaceted realities of several worlds. How will Earthlings react knowing Rainbows live among them?

Enlightened reading for young and old alike!.......2003-11-13

My 14 year-old son breezed through all 12 in just a couple of weeks. He thoroughly enjoyed following the Earthens, Rainbows and Supernaturals throughout all of their adventures. Not since Harry Potter has a series kept him so enthralled. As both a mother and a child psychiatrist, I appreciate the Rainbow Chroniclesý wholesome quality and theme of peace.
