When I Grow Up, I Can Be a Dietitian -- Suzanne Domel Baxter, Paperback
Although everyone eats, few people know what dietitians do. As the food and nutrition experts, dietitians help individuals and communities eat well, stay healthy, and thrive. Dietitians work in a wide variety of settings-from hospitals and schools to sports teams, research labs, and even the military.
This vibrant, illustrated nonfiction book introduces children ages 6 to 12 to the exciting and often overlooked career of dietetics. Ten diverse children-representing different races, ethnicities, genders, and disabilities-imagine becoming dietitians and working in 10 unique settings. Each child also shares a favorite fresh vegetable paired with a fun dip or topping, adding a delicious twist to the learning experience. Two activity pages reinforce key concepts.
Readers will:
- Learn what dietitians do and where they work
- Discover fun ways to enjoy fresh vegetables
- See themselves represented in healthcare careers
Perfect for classrooms, libraries, school counseling offices, career days, and family reading time, When I Grow Up, I Can Be a Dietitian is a fun and educational introduction to a rewarding, science-based profession.
This is the first children's book (to our knowledge) to introduce the profession of nutrition and dietetics in a kid-friendly way.
All book royalties are donated to initiatives to help build the dietetics workforce.
