Comments
about the
book:
“Health is
the
subject in
the elementary school that we are
encouraged to teach but do not
schedule a specific time for it. I like
knowing how we can incorporate
health into reading. I can easily fit it
into story time each day.”
-Deb Schnell, elementary teacher, Meade
School District.
