Candy Kid and his Adventures approach the same important lesson in a way a young child will enjoy and understand. This delightful picture book tells the story of a boy named Andy, who doesn’t want to try any “real” food, and just eats sweets morning, noon, and night. One night, he shrinks to microscopic size, and then Every thing change... Through vibrant illustrations and gentle words, this story reinforces the idea that healthy foods are something good that children should want for themselves. It will not make kids feel bad about eating occasional treats, but plants a seed in the mind of young readers to get them thinking about what good, healthy eating can do for them. Children will love the appealing character of Candy Andy, and parents will love the healthy message their kids can learn just by reading a fun story.
