I received a copy of this book from the publisher through Net Galley. What follows is an honest review.

The book it self is great, though I have a few reservations. The whole book does reflect "difficult times", yes it stays on topic, however it reminds me too much of "Daily Bread".

To me it's the same exact thing, except the title is different and it only focuses on the one subject.

I do however like the prayers, they seem more believable.

I would personally still recommend it, and use it myself.… (plus d'informations)

This was actually a book from the juvenile section at the library...but as I am currently working on a reading "set" that is about obesity, diet (as in eating habits, as well as over viewing various "diet" books), and general health and well-being.

I figured why not...what are they telling kids about fat and obesity these days. This turned out to be the first in a series of 7 books (of which my library has exactly 0 of the remaining books), it's a very broad overview of what "they" are calling the obesity epidemic these days. In many ways it's like Fast Food Nation or Supersize Me! but with out the gross stuff on animal slaughter (FFN) or the throwing up (SSM).

I think this is aimed at teens, but think that audience would be extremely bored by this book (it's only 100 pages...and well over half of that is splashy graphic layouts), I'd guess that older children 8-12 (ish) might like this book, as it would be easy to read and understand. I'd recommend trying to find any of the books in this series USED simply because they want nearly 25.00 a pop for them and they are not much substance for the amount of money they are charging for them.

In the world of kiddie books, this is about a B- Interesting if you buy into the obesity as a national epidemic or just want to give your kids a solid grounding in what is wrong with eating a lot of fast food.… (plus d'informations)
