Food and nutrition, explained for kids

Lizzy Rockwell’s guide connects everyday foods—from carrots to cookies—with the nutrients they contain and the roles those nutrients play. It also covers digestion, calories, and how much of each nutrient a child needs, bringing several parts of food and nutrition together in one accessible subject guide. Kid-friendly recipes, including Alphabread and Full o’ Beans Soup, add a practical element, and a food fat-testing activity invites hands-on exploration. The book’s scope makes healthy eating a topic children can investigate through both explanation and activities.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 learning about food and nutrition
  • Families seeking a child-focused resource for discussing healthy eating
  • Educators, librarians, and health professionals explaining nutrition to children
