           Welcome to the Michigan Team Nutrition Booklist
                                                    About this Resource
         The Michigan Team Nutrition Booklist contains the annotations for over 300 books about food,
         healthy eating, and physical activity for children in pre-school through third grade.
         If you’re reading this introduction, chances are you’re probably interested in nutrition, physical
         activity, reading or a combination of all three. That’s great. Teaching children to read, teaching
         children how to choose and eat healthy foods, and teaching children to have fun being physically
         active are very important jobs. Thanks for your commitment!
         Nutrition educators can use the books on the Michigan Team Nutrition Booklist to…
             ·    Introduce children to the Food Guide Pyramid and the Physical Activity Pyramid;
             ·    Create enthusiasm for learning about and tasting new foods;
             ·    Teach children about the food, food customs, and physical activity habits of others around
                  the world;
             ·    Motivate children to be physically active and to enjoy physical activity;
             ·    Integrate nutrition and physical activity education into core subjects including reading/lan-
                  guage arts, social studies, math, and science.
                                                 Who is the Booklist for?
         This booklist is for teachers, Extension staff members, dietitians, nutritionists, health educators,
         Comprehensive School Health Education Coordinators, school nurses, librarians, parents, school
         foodservice staff members or anyone interested in reading, learning about healthy foods, and
         growing up healthy.
