Pyramids Between the Pages

Welcome to the on-line version of the Michigan Team Nutrition Booklist. This booklist is a component of Pyramids Between the Pages, a program that links literacy with nutrition and physical activity education.

If you clicked on this link, chances are you're probably interested in nutrition, physical activity, reading or a combination of all three. That's great. Teaching children to read, and teaching children how to choose and eat healthy foods, and to have fun being physically active are very important jobs.Thanks for your commitment!

What is the Team Nutrition Booklist?

Our booklist contains short, one-paragraph annotations for over 300 books about food, healthy eating, and physical activity for children in pre-school through third grade. A 23-page, Search-By-Theme cross-reference section allows the user to search for books related to a specific theme such as Fruits and Vegetables, Dairy, Breakfast, ABCs, Pizza, Soup-making, Outside Activity, Counting and Math, Spanish Translations and more. There are 39 different themes. Additional information about each book also appears in this section including identification of whether or not the book is an Accelerated Reader (AR) book (as of August 2002), what type of book it is (fiction or non-fiction), and which Team Nutrition Goal it best supports and/or promotes.

For more information about how the books were selected, reviewed, and rated order a print copy of the Michigan Team Nutrition Booklist.

Why are some books missing from the list?

Reviewing books for the Michigan Team Nutrition Booklist is an on-going process. A book might be missing from our list because it is one we have not reviewed yet, or it may have been excluded from our list because it did not meet our criteria. If you know of a good book that you think should be on our list please share the title with the Michigan Team Nutrition Project Coordinator.
