Book overview

Learn how to spot the Hangries and how to keep them at bay with this engaging and kid-friendly look at the science behind our bodies' need for food and the relationship between hunger and mood.

We've all been there--when our hunger slides into anger and suddenly, we feel . . . hangry. And kids certainly aren't exempt from this feeling. Attack of the Hangries explores the scientific reason behind this phenomenon as the author takes the reader through the experience of being hangry in a fun and informative way. What happened? Where did those feelings come from? And why? Kids will delight in the humor and over-the-top characters, while parents will appreciate the subtle message being imparted. Helpful sidebars and accessible back matter explain the science behind hunger and how to properly feed and care for our bodies. For caregivers with hangry little ones, this book will be a welcome tool to encourage regular, healthy eating.
