Workboot Series

 The Workboot Series is a collection of high quality, innovative books featuring Australian farming industries and the story of food and clothing from the farm to the supermarket.

The Workboot Series books take an educational and entertaining look at modern Australian farming. For the first time, farming is explained so people of all ages and walks of life can discover where our food and clothing comes from and why agriculture is so important to our daily lives.

Each title in The Workboot Series book provides a balanced and comprehensive story of primary industry, including sections on The Source, The Producer, The Product, The Consumer and The Environment. Current titles include Potatoes, Eggs, Rice, Wheat, Vegetables, Dairy, Honey, Timber, Beef, Seafood and Agroforestry.

The books mix a detailed and lively text with full colour photographs, delightful illustrations of the cheeky cartoon character, Blunnie the workboot, graphs, charts, diagrams, flow charts, activities, a glossary and an index. Interesting snippets of information are featured in Fact and Did You Know boxes so readers of all levels can access information.

The Workboot Series resource kits complement the books and help teachers plan a term's work across the key learning areas with little preparation. Each kit contains detailed lesson notes, answers, activity pages to copy and product samples. Each kit also includes a copy of the relevant Workboot Series book.
