I recommend it for younger students, up to 3rd grade because it is pretty short and with a simple story. It kept my first graders laughing and engaged! I would definitely use it again as a mentor text to another nutrition lesson in the future. ( ) This book is a great example of an informational fantasy, because a group of personified foods use their quirky sense of humor to explain the importance of the food pyramid. In addition to creating a realistic story including conflict, the personified foods portray that each of the food groups is essential for one's diet on a daily basis. Overall, children will be engaged by the realistic and fun nature of the book. Age Appropriateness: Primary Media: Acrylic, Oil, Colored Pencil no reviews | add a review
When snack foods take over the food pyramid and make it collapse, members of the various food groups have to work together using the Great Food Guide to rebuild it. No library descriptions found. |
