Series statement

Before the store

Summary

Explains how wood is cut and milled; discusses how graphite is produced and pencils are assembled at a factory; and how pencils become available to consumers. Kids are used to seeing stores stocked with foods, toys, household items, and more. But most kids know very little about where those products come from or how they are made. Our discovery-focused Before the Store series raises young readers' awareness by showing the journeys some popular products follow before they even reach the store. From raw materials to production, shipping, and stocking, the backstories for these products are interesting and enlightening!
