I Know Where My Food Goes

Written by Jacqui Maynard and Kate Rowan, illustrated by Katharine McEwen.

The book uses a conversational format between a young boy named Sam and his mother to explore the process of digestion in an engaging and accessible way.

The narrative follows Sam's lunch of pizza and salad, explaining how saliva begins breaking down food in the mouth, how the food travels through the esophagus to the stomach, and how the small intestine, which is described as being as long as a giraffe, processes nutrients.

The book also addresses common bodily functions like burping and pooping, making complex biological concepts relatable for young readers.
