User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Must-Have Book for Healthy Eaters!!
This is a great book and a must have if you want to know the truth about what you are feeding your kids! We can’t always provide our kids with the finest foods, especially when traveling or in other people homes, so this book provides valuable information to help you make wise decisions for your kids..Pick it up.. you will be glad you did!! It’s also a great gift for a new mom too!!

3 Stars Good switches for calories, some choices could be healthier!
As a nurse, I realize that this book could be very helpful in choosing lower-calorie options. However, there are some encouraged foods that aren’t much healthier than the “bad” foods (and some choices are not much lower in calories). It may seem like you can indulge all you want without consequences. Also, instead of costly processed foods, try simple, fresh foods (apple with peanut butter, cottage cheese with fruit); these are much healthier and cheaper!

5 Stars Great visual guide for children
I bought this book to read with my four year old. He’s not overweight, but, like most kids, he loves crackers, cookies, and pretty much any sweet. The potential to become overweight in the future is certainly there.

He thoroughly enjoys this book and has learned to point out the better foods in the grocery store. The bright pictures of the food are a great resource for little people who can’t read all the details. I highly recommend this book for PS/K children who need some help with making better food choices.

5 Stars Excellent
Can’t say enough great things! Full of great info and surprising info at that! A must read to anyone trying to make smarter food choices.

5 Stars Love this book!
I bought this book hoping to help me make better choices for my 11 year old son. He saw the book and now carries it around. He will consult it before we go into restaurants and makes sure we all order something healthier. This is such a great concept that I have bought the other ‘This Not That’ books as well!
