Review

"How wonderful to find such an entertaining book that helps kids (and adults, too) know which foods are truly healthy for them, and which are not. Fun and practical at the same time!" -- John Robbins, author of Diet For a New America

"This book is a gem! Every child in America and beyond deserves and needs this message, and everything it (hopefully) brings." -- Mollie Katzen, author of Moosewood Cookbook, Pretent Soup, and Salad People

"Warning: giving this book to a young person may make her or him a picky eater... and the planet will be a better place for it!" -- Timothy Crews, Ph.D., Professor of Envrionmental Studies and Agroecology, Prescott College

Product Description

Nautilus Book Award Finalist (Saving the World One Book at a Time) as well as the Moonbeam Book Award "Kids for Saving Earth." An introduction to organic foods and sustainable agriculture for 8- to 12-year-olds. An unexpected visitor from another planet refuses to eat Jen's Favorite snack, calling it "Not Food." He won't even taste her Halloween candy! What could explain this strange behavior? Find out by joining this fun, food-finding adventure. Using alien technology (and common sense), dodging ray beams (and misunderstandings), deflecting dangerous chemicals (and ignorance), we are led to the ineveitable truth: What you eat not only affects your health, but the health of the entire planet!

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful book with an important message, February 22, 2007
While this book is probably targeting children in the 6-12 year-old age range, my 3-year old son loves it. It has become one of his favorite books. It is a fun story about an alien bug named "No Eat" and his earthling friend Lulu, who go about teaching children the importance of sustainable farming and the benefits of eating healthy organic foods. When my son was recently offered some junk food, he loudly stated, "No eat, not food", and turned it down!

5.0 out of 5 stars ~Fabulous for Teachers!~, September 21, 2007
By Mountain Girl (California) - See all my reviews
Fabulous is the word to use to describe such a fun, but deep meaning, book. Its kid-friendly story is a wonderful way to teach children the difference between natural and processed foods (a line not so clearly drawn these days). Through cute characters, a plot is built around the notion of eating foods that are great for both humans and the earth from which we live.
Also, what a fantastic thing for school-aged kids to be exposed to and read! It is a book that can open up doorways for discussion about health, digestion, environmental science, agriculture, and social awareness. Teachers will love the bridge it builds between healthful diet choices and junky ones, which we can then relate to how a brain functions in the classroom.
I teach 5th grade and just read the book to my students. They were engaged and curious during the read aloud, as they were thinking about what they had just eaten at lunch! Many students don't know how to make good food choices and this book opens their minds to finding out more before popping something into their mouths. Wonderful!

5.0 out of 5 stars A perfect book, December 20, 2006
A great book teaching about how important organic food can be. Before I read this book I didnt really think that organic food was that important, but after I read the book, I learned that organic food can be be very heathy for our bodies. No eat is my favorite character because when the kids first meet him, he refuses the chip that they offered him to stay healthy.
I really liked this book.
