The Super Soybean

40 pp. | Whitman | September, 2007 | Trade ISBN 978-0-8075-7549-9 $16.95
(3) 4-6 Bial describes the wondrous properties of soybeans, justifying their classification as "super food." He also explains how they can be used to make ink, plastics (Henry Ford commissioned a "soybean car"), and biodiesel. The book's clean layout includes many clear, bright photographs. It's a specialized subject, but interested readers will find that the book provides much to chew on. Bib., ind.
