The Fantastic Fruit Group
By Marcie Aboff
The fruit group is an important part of the new ChooseMyPlate.gov program for good nutrition. This book shows that a fruit grows from flowers on trees, bushes and vines. The different nutritional benefits of the various fruits are explained. It also shows how easy it can be to add fruit into one's daily diet. The illustrations are done in the popular cartoon graphic form, which may entice non-readers to look at the book. The glossary, index, and bibliography at the back of the book encourage further learning. (Part of the series "Myplate and Healthy Eating" which may not be 100 percent accurate, but still recommended)
