Review by School Library Journal Review
Gr 2-4-Slim Goodbody is at it again, sharing his healthy lifestyle tips with children. Both books are chock-full of suggestions as well as explanations of why people of all ages need to follow the guidelines of healthy living. Eating Right discusses the different food groups and how much from each one individuals need to consume on a daily basis. The illustration of the new food pyramid gives children a visual representation of nutrition. Staying Well explains illnesses and germs. It discusses colds, earaches and eye itches, flu and pneumonia, mumps and measles, and other common ailments. In both books, the two-page chapters include a photo or illustration on every page. A "Something to Think About" box also appears on most spreads. Useful for students who need to research nutrition, diseases, and other health-related issues.-Kristen M.
