What’s So Yummy? All About Eating Well and Feeling Good

The racially blended family from the previous books in Harris and Westcott’s Let’s Talk About You and Me series model responsible shopping and healthy eating habits as they buy groceries for a picnic. The enthusiastic brother and sister describe their food-oriented activities while Harris explains the connection between what one eats and how one feels. The dialogue tends to be more didactic than realistic (“I bet if I eat some blueberries and yogurt or some carrots and hummus, I won’t be tired or hungry anymore”), but readers may still take the cue to try some new foods. Ages 2–5. (Sept.)
