Mission: Nutrition – School Library Journal, Series Made Simple

Cover: Mission: Nutrition

Allying itself with First Lady Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move!” campaign, this series covers a wide spectrum of food-related issues. The titles go beyond good eating habits to look at topics not often covered for children, such as green eating, following special diets, and proper nutrition for athletes. Especially noteworthy are Diverse Traditions, which depicts foods from around the world and encourages readers to try new things, and Healthy Balance, which addresses the mixed messages children receive about eating and reminds them to listen closely to their bodies’ messages to judge what they are really craving. Students looking for report material will not be disappointed.
