Description: Relates the complete story of bread, showing first how wheat is cut, threshed, and ground into flour. Shows flour at a large bakery being mixed with other ingredients to form dough, yeast causing the dough to rise, a machine dividing the dough into loaves, great ovens baking the loaves, and the bread being sliced and wrapped for delivery., On canister: "Drawing upon children's interets in food, machinery, and community helpers, this film shows the entire scope of bread-making from the golden wheat fields to bread upon the table. Billy Roberts, whose father works in a bakery, is taken on a tour through a modern plant. He pretends to be a baker and works the big mixers that prepare the 'sponge'; then watches all the steps in the process of making bread and other bakery products. Billy has a vivid learning experience as he finds out how the basic need for one kind of food is filled in our modern industrial society." Collaborator: Dimitro Bourandas, Ed.D.
