This review is from: Jimmie Boogie Learns About Smoking (3rd Edition) (Paperback)

An excellent book for families of young children.
Jimmie Boogie and the kids invite you onto the playground for fun while teaching about the dangers of smoking and addiction. The messages age given through a multicultural group of friends with happy freckled faces, sibling support and possitive peer pressure to not smoke. The delightful coloring book images keep the attention of young readers. Children learn possitive messages about staying healthy,and ways people can get help to stop smoking. A friendly book,an important message written in a sensitive, caring way.

This review is from: Jimmie Boogie Learns About Smoking, Second Edition (Paperback)

If you want an easy-to-read short story that really helps children understand the dangers of smoking, then Jimmy Boogie Learns About Smoking (second edition) is for you. Addiction can be a very difficult concept for children to grasp. This story is so simply written kids will quickly comprehend the message. And the book's colorful illustrations really reinforce the message by holding their attention. I would highly recommend it to any parent or teacher who wants to educate their little ones about an addiction to smoking.
