Brought to you by the National Black Child Development Institute (NBCDI) and Oldways, the culturally relevant Good for Me cookbook focuses on promoting positive nutrition for children and their families, and is particularly inclusive of children of color. The cookbook is designed to engage children in healthy eating by introducing them to a diverse range of fruits and vegetables - from Avocados to Zucchini. There are 26 recipes (one for each letter of the alphabet), all kid-tested and approved. Most of the dishes are inspired by African heritage, using staple ingredients from Africa, South America, the Caribbean and the American South. The rest are inspired by Mediterranean and Asian cuisines. 

The book is suitable to use with children ages three years old and up. 

Each recipe includes:

• A description of the fruit or vegetable
• Nutritional analysis
• Skill and knowledge-building activities: culture and geography, science, math, sensory and language
• Questions and conversation starters

Oldways resources included: African heritage pantry staples, African heritage diet grocery list, and the African heritage diet pyramid. 

74 pages. 8.5" x 11". Spiral-bound.
