The role of nutrients in the body--including in digestion and elimination, their uses in cells, and consequences of a lack or excess of certain kinds--is explained in the informative books in this series. Boxed facts, charts, and color photos of kids cooking or eating add interest. Although the format is geared toward middle graders, some information will challenge those who haven't taken high school biology. Reading list. Glos., ind. [Review covers these Body Needs titles: Carbohydrates for a Healthy Body, Fats for a Healthy Body, Proteins for a Healthy Body, Vitamins and Minerals for a Healthy Body, and Water and Fiber for a Healthy Body.]
