School Lunches: Healthy Choices vs. Crowd Pleasers

Childhood obesity is a worsening problem across the country. Will mandating that schools serve healthier lunches help control the problem? Or should children and their parents have the right to choose and learn to make their own healthy choices? Perspectives Flip Books are like two books in one: Start from one end and learn why some people argue schools should ban junk food and serve healthier lunches. Then flip it over and discover why others argue students should make their own choices. Critical thinking questions help you analyze both perspectives and form your own opinions about the issue.

Reviews

School Library Journal - Rita Meade, Brooklyn Public Library

"This series discusses topical and complicated issues that teens will find relevant. However, it’s the intriguing “flipbook” aspect of this series that sets it apart, allowing readers to experience both sides of an argument. . . .There’s tons of text here, but it’s clear and engaging. . . .A pertinent series for personal or academic use." - School Library Journal

School Library Connection - Cynthia Ortiz, School Librarian, Hackensack High School, NJ

"These books each present two sides of the title issue in a factual and balanced manner. . . .All the books will engage the intended audience, provide ample opportunity for class discussion, and spark interest in further exploration of the topics. These would be excellent starting points for preparing debates on these issues." - School Library Connection

VOYA - Samantha Godbey

"Each is visually engaging with colorful photographs and sidebars. They are well-researched and include plentiful references for continued exploration of the topics. . . .Teachers will appreciate the discussion questions and project ideas as well as the fiction and nonfiction suggestions for further reading. . . .These are recommended for middle-grade collections in schools with assignments on these topics." - VOYA
