Synopsis

Explains in simple language the importance of regular physical activity.

School Library Journal

K-Gr 2-The importance of cleanliness, sleep, physical activity, and good nutrition is covered in these books. With one or two sentences per spread, the writing is simple enough for emergent readers. Full-page, color photographs of a diverse cast of kids are visually inviting and mirror the texts. Glossaries are included, but the terms are not highlighted, and the inclusion of words such as "school" and "shower" seem to be unnecessary. Inquisitive readers will enjoy the factual tidbits on the "Did You Know" page, such as: "Giraffes only sleep for two hours a day" (Sleep). Appealing and educational, these books are serviceable little packages.-Melinda Piehler, Sawgrass Elementary School, Sunrise, FL Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.
