Get Moving: Tips on Exercise - Softcover

Kathy Feeney is a Capstone Press author.

Kindergarten-Grade 3-Two simply written titles that explain very briefly why exercise and getting enough sleep are important for children. Each spread has a full-color photograph that faces about four or five sentences of text. Moving has an activity pyramid and also discusses good nutrition. Sleep has a diagram of the sleep cycle and a discussion of somnambulism and nightmares. A "Guess What?" feature gives additional tidbits of information. In Moving, the "Hands On" feature suggests a fitness test and in Sleep, keeping a dream diary. Angela Royston's A Healthy Body (Heinemann Library, 1999) has a different activity pyramid and doesn't discuss nutrition. The emphasis in Susan Kent's Let's Talk about When You Have Trouble Going to Sleep (Rosen, 2000) is more specific.
