Review by Booklist Review
Ages 5^-8. One of the classics of the Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science series, What Happens to a Hamburger (1970, 1985) reappears with attractive new illustrations, enhanced in a few places with photos that show body parts such as the epiglottis and the stomach lining. From the silver diner featured on the jacket to the stylized plates of food and clear diagrams of the digestive system within, Miller's digital artwork has a jaunty, retro look. The diner's cheerful waiter serves as the narrator, explaining the process of digestion step-by-step. --Carolyn Phelan

Review by Horn Book Review
New digital illustrations set this book, first published in 1970, in a retro fifties diner with the counterman demonstrating the digestive process. Photomicrographs are included to show some internal organs. Specific comparisons and simple activities and experiments with easily obtained materials clearly demonstrate digestive functions.
