Children's books that combines fun, suspense, and a lesson for the little ones are the best type to teach them. And having good illustrations are also a plus to engage the target audience. This one seems to fit the bill too with its story line and the lessons of importance of health and nutrition. Congratulations on BOTD!

The author's use of humor to teach children about nutrition and health is simply brilliant. It's fantastic to see a book that can engage readers of all ages and impart important knowledge. I can't wait to get my hands on this one!
You are yet to be the best version of yourself. Keep refining.

The bear cubs’ situation presents a fun way for children to learn about nutrition – something they routinely shun in favour of junk food – and health. I'm concerned by the slack narration but hope that the colourful pics offset that.

The review offered above mentioned the effort that was placed in the book, in the form of geographical locations and the importance of nutrition and how eating habits effect the body. I appreciate the recognition of how well the book was proofread in order to ensure lack of grammatical errors. The illustration style is original and brings effort into the book without perfectionism and I appreciate that.

Generally, everyone needs to learn about health and nutrition, not just children because what affects people's health most is what they consume or what they didn't consume enough. This a great book for both adults and children.

This is children that talk about how Doctoroo and her team flew to Washington, DC, to intervene in the situation that wanted to threaten the possibility of America's Independence Day possible. I like how the author uses a funny tale to teach children and how he teaches children about nutrition and health. Nice review.
