ReviewedRead all about your favorite foods with Let’s Look at Food Groups! Books in this series introduce readers to the five food groups while explaining why dairy, fruits, grains, protein foods, and vegetables are important to our bodies. Tightly controlled vocabulary, repetitive text patterns, and crisp, colorful photographs work together to create an engaging and supportive reading experience. Each title includes tools for teachers and caregivers as well as introductory nonfiction features such as labels, a table of contents, words to know, and an index. A Let’s Review! feature poses a photo and question to help readers review and expand learning on the topic.
Scrumptious depictions of healthful foods appear in each title of this colorful series. Each volume begins with resources for parents and caregivers, as well as a full-color “Words to Know” feature that includes words students will encounter in the book. Enticing photos of a variety of foods are a big draw here, as a group of racially diverse youngsters choose and eat fruits and vegetables, and prepare and share yummy treats. The text and photos work together to demonstrate important benefits that can be derived from eating healthy foods. An index is included. VERDICT: This excellent introduction to healthy eating is highly recommended for schools and public libraries.
