Lunch Boxes (Talking It Through)

Product Description
Books in the Talking it Through series are expressly designed to help children cope with new situations or difficult problems, from starting school to the break-up of a family. Books in the series invite children to think; they communicate with them directly and without condescension. The series was created by Althea.

Synopsis
What’s a healthy diet? Will it appeal to children? Althea looks into children’s lunchboxes to show us which foods are good for us and why, and which should be for occasional eating only. We hear about Kate who is always tired, Rashida who can’t eat nuts, Anna who doesn’t like meat and Tony who’d rather have crisps. Written using current Health Education Authority guidelines, ‘Lunch Boxes’ offers an upbeat look at food. Using humour and lively illustrations, it takes a refreshingly realistic look at eating and touches on a range of food issues including vegetarianism and food allergies.
