Not what I expected
Given the title, I expected that this little book might talk more about grass, farms, and a natural milk production process. I had hoped to use this book as a resource in a elementary school unit on "grasslands." However, there is only one picture of grass and only one picture of a complete cow.
Instead, the book is very focused on machines. Even the page with the title "A farmer milks the cow" shows only a close-up photo of a cow's udder attached to a milking machine. There are no farmers in this book. I realize that this is the truth of industrial milk production in the US, but the book seems mis-titled. A better title might be something like "Modern Milk Production" or "How Milk Gets to You." The inclusion of "grass" gives the wrong impression as this book is very much about what machines do to milk before we drink it, and only a little about how milk is actually made. (And to be absolutely truthful, of course, very few milk cows even eat grass anymore - they eat corn - but the book doesn't talk about this at all. )
Additionally, I don't know what Ms. Taus-Bolstad's affiliations are but several of the photos come from the USDA and stock photo agencies. Visually, this is not a very interesting book for children.
I expected something very different when I placed my order.

From Cow to Store
Shows milk production starting with a cow eating grass. Focuses on the transporting, processing, and packaging milk goes through to prepare it for sale in stores. Simple sentences are on the left page and each right page is a color photo. Includes a three word glossary and eight word index. Karen Woodworth Roman, Children's Science Book Review
