Summary
Whether their school is under a banyan tree, in a dusty tent held up with poles, or in a sturdy brick structure in the heart of a city, all children need a healthy lunch to be able to learn and… grow. As the world becomes more interconnected, what we eat has become part of a huge global system. Unpack a school lunch, and you'll discover that food is connected to issues that matter to everyone and everything such as climate change, health and inequality. The author reveals the variety and inequality to be found in the food consumed by young people in typical school lunches from thirteen countries around the world. Grades 4-7. 2012.
