Doc Broc's stone hinge cave adventure

My kids loooove this book. They have listened (cd included) to it so many times they have it memorized.

Every child should have this book & CD or at least hear this adventure story.

The story in and of itself is a masterpiece to say the least with its poetic style and beautiful, playful illustrations. Adding the CD just makes it come alive for the reader or listener!!! As a former classroom teacher I can see so much creative writing coming from it; to say nothing of the unending pictures that will be drawn all about it and the stories from those pictures. It can definitely be used in classrooms as part of extended health/science lessons teaching children about the best eating habits. The CD makes it a MUST HAVE classroom story from Kindergarten to 6th grade and even older. The 6th graders could write a play and act it out for the younger grades on parent's night. Every child should have this book & CD or at least hear this adventure story. I hope the author is contacting every librarian in every school there is and the public libraries too!!!

Doc Broc Rocks

My six-year-old was mesmerized with the graphics and narration. He held on to the book for an hour or two, walking around the house after the first read. You won't go wrong with this one if you want some fun while the kids are learning about eating right.

Be Healthy and Strong Like Doc Broc

Our family reads the Doc Broc book together to talk about how living alkaline foods give us energy and help us to "be healthy and strong like Doc Broc". This is an important message for our children who are surrounded by the unrelenting mass marketing of acidic foods and drinks. Below are reviews from my daughters: "I am a eight year old girl and I love the Doc Broc book. My favorite recipes in the book are Vegan Chili and Grapefruit Super Soy Pudding. I like the part when Big Bad Burger Bully burps in Doc Broc's face! Then Lucious Lettuce ripped off a piece of her skirt and threw it at Big Bad Burger Bully. He got blinded. Then he jumped on his skate board and it lead him straight into a wall. There were pieces of cheese, ketchup, mustard and mayo all over the room, too much of a mess for a mop or a broom. I learned that health is not only healthy - it is fun as well. I think that other kids deserve a good life too, free from sickness and weight." - Stefanie And from my five year old... "I learned that if you eat alkaline you'll feel good that you taked care of yourself good." - Caroline

The perfect book to get kids eating good food and loving it!

This story book is a classic! Written like a poem, it's really catchy. Kids will love this book and the parents will too. It's simple, educational, inspiring and carries a powerful message. At last a book that really steps youngsters into understanding the truth about healthy foods and healthy bodies. I thought the pictures were adorable, bright and colorful and there are some really hysterical details. I like the fact that kids get to journey through and learn about the digestive system on this adventure. I loved the CD that allows kids to listen and read along on their own if they want to. The background music makes it really impacting and the sound effects will make kids laugh. The recipes are actually delicious!!! From breakfasts, to dinners, to quick and simple deserts, and there are some really healthy alternatives to fast foods. I'll eat these foods every day, you don't need to be a kid to enjoy this food! All round, this books a winner!
