Being Active My Pyramid Hb

Text and photographs present the importance of being active. Includes examples of how to stay active. Editorial Reviews From School Library Journal PreSchool-Grade 2-Perhaps best suited for classroom libraries, these books foster body and health awareness. Bright, full-page color photographs show children of various ethnicities demonstrating the concepts suggested in the texts. Sentences are simple, with plenty of repetition. Nonreaders will be able to get the messages from the pictures, which feature sound forms of exercise, show when to drink water, and depict nutritious snacks. Although a picture in Active shows a boy riding a bike that is too big for him, most of the photos are engaging and realistic. These titles promote the MyPyramidª government Web site and suggest FactHound as a safe source for links to additional information.-Janet S.
