K-Gr 1—With their extra-large fonts, few sentences per page, and full-color photos and diagrams, these early-reader-friendly titles are simple introductions to the USDA's MyPlate nutritional guidelines. Each title includes a definition of its featured food group, an explanation of health benefits, food suggestions, and recommended daily servings. Oils is particularly good as it contains information on healthy and unhealthy fats, advice to eat just a little fat each day, and the facts needed to make healthy choices. Serve these up as a solid choice for replacing food pyramid titles.
