Customer Reviews

Good for a doctor's office

A wonderful discussion of obesity and the use of food in ways destructive to health. This book would be good for a doctor's waiting room or a school library. It would help kids understand how they misuse food.

Important subject

As a children's counselor this subject has been minimally addressed in young childrens literature. I was pleased to see this title and review it. It is important to address this issue, and this author does so in a realistic manner. This book makes a good starting point for further discussions with children and parents about nutrition, reasons we eat, exercise and healthy habits. Many people use food as a coping mechanism and to see this issue being addressed for young children is a positive step in addressing this problem.
