Miss Betti, What Is This?: How Detroit's School Lunch Lady Got Good Food On The Menu
(eBook)
Description
Discover the changemaker who transformed the Detroit Public School lunch program-in stunning illustration. Miss Betti knew wholesome, nourishing food. She also knew the kids in Detroit's public schools were not getting wholesome, nourishing lunches. Luckily, as Detroit's school lunch lady, Miss Betti had the power to make a change. She started small--with fresh apples and sweet potato fries--but soon she was filling lunch trays with a rainbow of tasty choices. And then, Miss Betti looked toward some of the empty city lots across Detroit. She started an urban gardening program to teach students about growing fruits and veggies--filling schools' salad bars with fresh fare. A true story about big goals and small steps in America's Motor City.
