WASHINGTON, D.C. -
“What’s To Eat? And Other
Questions Kids Ask About
Food,” the 1979 Yearbook of
Agriculture, was published
Wednesday by the U.S.
Department of Agriculture.
The book is designed and
written especially for 9 to 12
year olds. It was produced as
one of USDA’s commitments
honoring the International
Year of the Child.
Between the covers of the
new yearbook is a lively and
authoritative story of food,
from the earliest struggle to
get enough to tomorrow’s
problems of supply. Colorful
illustrations, jokes, quizzes,
craft ideas and recipes help
enliven and support the
story.
Besides being the first
yearbook designed for
children, the new 144-page
book is also the first-issued
by USDA in paperback. This
was done to hold down the
pnce-$4.50 per copy-and to
insure the widest possible
use.

fascinating one,” Secretary
of Agriculture Bob Bergland
said. “This book tells the
story m two ways. It tells the
story of those who produce
our food and it tells us how
our health, well-being and
pleasure are affected by
food.
“There is no better
audience for that story than
our young people,” Bergland
said.
Among the book’s eight
sections are:
-A look at the history of
food and eating, including
some peculiar table
etiquette of early days;
-A television interview
with a soybean and a farm
tour conducted by a 12-year
old farm boy that helps
illustrate how and where
food is grown and how it is
delivered to dinner tables;
-Tours of a supermarket
and other places to buy food,
with some smart shopping
