New Children’s Nutrition Book Makes Learning To Eat Right Fun!

Childhood obesity is an important issue in the United States, and throughout the world. Teaching children about proper nutrition is no easy task, and many of the available children’s nutrition books are inanimate references. They appeal to parents and teachers only, while our children, those to whom the information applies, are left bored and disinterested. In order to promote positive attitudes about food and healthy eating, a nutrition book for children must keep them engaged, and most importantly, allow them to have fun learning!

Health and nutrition advocate Jay Holt has created "The Adventures of Tommy the Tomato", a guide to healthy eating for kids. Jay has been a tireless crusader for healthy eating since earning a degree in nutrition from the University of Florida. As a former college basketball player, he believes in teaching children to eat healthy at a young age. With proper dietary habits, kids will have the tools and ability to excel throughout their lives, whether at home, school, or beyond! However, there was simply no children’s nutrition book that accomplished the goal. Until now…

Children Learn Good Nutrition In A Whole New Way!

When reading "The Adventures of Tommy the Tomato", children go on an educational adventure alongside Tommy the Tomato. Throughout the book, Tommy encounters other fruits and vegetables, all of whom explain how they are beneficial to Tommy, and in the same breath, to the child reading. By injecting children’s nutrition information into the story itself, kids learn about good nutrition while enjoying their journey with Tommy, instead of feeling like they are studying. This nutrition book’s beautiful illustrations and Jay Holt’s ability to see the information through the eyes of a child make learning with "The Adventures of Tommy the Tomato" fun and inviting. As a result, the nutrition information stays with your child for life!
