Finally, everything you need to get kids (and grown-ups) excited to eat their veggies!  100 pages chock-full of fun illustrations of 30 different vegetables for kids to color, playful rhymes to recite, and easy low-cost recipes for tasty ways to prepare them together with a grown-up. Plus, each veggie’s name in 6 different languages, and each tells what nutrients it’s rich in and what is its growing season.

There are also 14 “Group Acts” offering recipes for several veggie snacks and meals from “Make a Face!” to “Veggie Sushi and Rice Balls”.  And, a host of fun activities with reproducible activity sheets to easily integrate nutrition into core subject areas. Kids can even put on their own Veggies Got Talent! Show (a take-off on “America’s Got Talent!”) for their peers and families as a way to stand up for Mother Nature and promote the healthy foods she’s grown for us!

“It’s like a vegetable version of Dr. Seuss, but more fun ’cause kids get to color, cook, eat…and read!”
–Milania Macharelli, 5th Grader, Southington, CT

“I love this book, it’s very easy to use, and as the Student Engagement Manager for my district, I give out the coloring sheets when talking about the importance of eating school breakfast and lunch! Elementary schools would love this!” –Tory Gibson, Nutrition Services, Horry County Schools, SC

“This is by far the most unique, creative, and interactive way I’ve seen to engage children in healthy eating!”
