A practical look at how geography works round us. This new series of six titles takes young geographers on a hands-on exploration of familiar environments, and encourages an understanding of the forces that shape our wider world. Step-by-step projects aimed at enhancing children's knowledge of physical and social geography are accompanied by simple text and colourful illustrations and photographs. FOOD AND FARMING Looks at where our food comes from. Simple fun projects illustrate how soil and climate affect food production, how food is transported around the world and how intensive farming affects wildlife. Readers are encouraged to identify what foods are made from, to conduct their own terracing project and to examine how food is kept fresh.
