I Care About My Body - Booklist

Cheerfully illustrated pages featuring animals, kids, and a variety of anthropomorphized objects introduce some basic health and hygiene concepts in this entry in the I Care About series (6 titles). The advice, one short paragraph per two-page spread, is all very general and straightforward—brush your teeth, wash your hands, eat your vegetables, get exercise, have a positive attitude, and so on—so there’s not much here that’s new or unfamiliar. The breezy tone and somewhat narrow scope of the advice means this likely won’t be helpful for kids who need specific tips or live with chronic health issues, but the bright and colorful format, as well as the fact that it’s all in one place, might make this useful for children who need to be reminded of such things. An upbeat entry point to conversations about health.
