Good Enough to Eat: A Kid's Guide to Food and Nutrition Paperback – Picture Book, 23 Jun. 2009

Bought this to use in my kindergarten classroom. Kids loved it. And after reading it they wanted to know more. Pictures are bright and information given is perfect for little kids.

Good info, nice illustrations.My son liked it a lot.

I bought this as a competition prize for children at my school. They thoroughly enjoyed it.

Excellent book and a must in every preparatory school . A well presented piece. So full marks to author Lizzy Rockwell

Excellent platform to teach children about what is good and maybe not so good for you. Will use this book regularly.

This book has some really good information and is a good level for primary age children. I wanted it for 3-4yr olds and with some adaptations this will be suitable. The text is a good level for Nursery-year six (probably) the idea is brilliant, but I disagree with some of the nutritional information. This is definitely written by an American author so some of the foods may not be recognised by children here and the examples of carbohydrates are terrible. There’s no illustrations of complex, slow energy release carbs it’s all pretzels, white rice and breakfast cereal! Also, there is no distinction between different types of fats they’re are all talked about in the same way- the good, the bad and the ugly all lumped together. I think it’s probably still inline with the school curriculum, but does promote a poor western diet in places. So, if you’re aiming to teach children about good nutrition this will take a bit of explaining. Having said that it is the best I’ve found so far. It’s just that it could do with a bit of tweaking.

Really brilliant book to help my 4 year old understand why he needs to eat a varied meal.

GREAT BOOK FOR TEACHING ABOUT HEALTHY FOOD WELL LAID OUT AND EASY TO READ.
