The Weekly Reader Early Learning Library has introduced an appealing series of books for beginning readers designed to introduce common concepts in early elementary education. The text is simple and repetitive and each book contains colorful vibrant photos. This book, from the "Let's Read About Food" series, explores the products of the dairy family. Young readers learn that yogurt, milk, cheddar cheese and even goat cheese are part of the necessary elements that make for healthy eating habits. The message is clear that from a very young age it is important to understand how to eat well and develop wise eating patterns throughout life. The glossary in the back supplements the text with key words such as calcium and vitamin. Other books in this series include Bread and Cereal, Fats and Sweets, Fruit, Meat and Vegetables. 2002, Gareth Stevens,
