Designed for kids and adults to use together, The Flavor of Wisconsin for Kids draws upon the same source material that makes The Flavor of Wisconsin by Harva Hachten and Terese Allen a fascinating and authoritative document of the history and traditions of food in our state, and presents it in a colorful, kid-friendly format that's both instructional and fun. Mindful of the importance of teaching kids about where the foods they eat come from, each chapter examines a different food source--forests; waters; vegetable, meat, and dairy farms; gardens; and communities.

Terese Allen has written many books and articles about Wisconsin's food traditions and culinary culture, including The Flavor of Wisconsin, the 2012 Wisconsin Local Foods Journal, and Cafe Wisconsin Cookbook. She is food editor for Organic Valley and a columnist for Edible Madison magazine. Terese serves as president of the Culinary History Enthusiasts of Wisconsin (CHEW) and is the former chair of the REAP Food Group, a food and sustainability organization in southern Wisconsin.

As director of the Office of School Services at the Wisconsin Historical Society, Bobbie Malone wrote and edited many books for classrooms, including the fourth grade textbook, Wisconsin: Our State, Our Story; the New Badger History series; and the Badger Biographies series. Now she consults with school districts and museums and is busily working on a biography of author-illustrator Lois Lenski.
