Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Gr 4-6--Fitness, health, and hygiene tips presented with tongue planted firmly in cheek and humor that children will appreciate. Interesting facts about how our bodies work and suggestions for staying healthy are presented, accompanied by busy, brightly colored cartoon illustrations. Professor Protein's explanations are clear and concise, providing answers to questions like, why do we smell when we sweat? And why do we throw up? Topics range from exercise, to eating enough fiber, to the difference between a blackhead and a pimple. The format is clear and the numbered tips are easy to locate. The information is divided into three sections: exercise, personal hygiene, and diet. No new ground is covered here, but youngsters seeking information will find this lively presentation accessible, understandable, and entertaining.
