It is well documented that we prevent more disease, cope more effectively and heal much faster when we have adequate information regarding our health.
Kids are no different!
The provision of accurate, age-appropriate wellness information becomes a positive replacement for anxiety and fear of the unknown.
Each HWW series comprises six books containing current, accurate information that has been vetted by a specialist and then transformed into a story-style format captained by an engaging character and friends.
Bright, appealing illustrations perfectly capture the optimistic message that, if only given the tools, children can be powerful stewards of their own health.
Written for kids aged five to twelve years of age; the books are based on a variety of conditions that are largely preventable through education. Raising awareness of desirable lifestyle choices with children can greatly impact the incidence of diseases such as type 2 diabetes, smoking-related illness and the transmission of contagious infections.
As an added bonus, each book also contains a section called ‘Stuff for Grown-Ups;’ an easy-to-understand guide for parents including signs, symptoms and treatment.
