NUTRITION FOR HEALTHY GROWING UP, Dalibor Petrinić

The author was inspired to write this cookbook by the poor physical and mental condition of an increasing number of children, primarily caused by poor nutrition.
Food is information for the mind and body, everything we put into our bodies has an impact on our psyche, energy levels, concentration, mood and ultimately – our health.
Food can be medicine or a path to disease, it all depends on what we choose and in what quantities. Children are a particularly vulnerable group and it is crucial to instill healthy habits in them at an early age and teach them to eat as healthily as possible, but most importantly – show them that healthy food is very tasty.

Children are like sponges at an early age and imitate everything they see, so parents have an extremely great responsibility when it comes to the food they feed their children, but also themselves.
That's why this book is designed to educate parents about healthy eating, along with children, which will ultimately be a win for the entire family.
This is a unique book, not only on our market, but also on the world market, because the author managed to accomplish a very difficult task, which is to educate children in a fun and educational way on how to eat healthier.

Book features:
- a fun and instructive comic conversation between the main characters Žderica and Berica
- recipes for preparing simple, healthy, tasty and quick meals for children and parents
- educational and entertaining illustrations intended for children
- high-resolution photos of finished dishes
- video recipes available using QR codes.

"We dared to write this manual in order to share with others our insights into the key role of stories and storytelling in introducing children to the world of so-called classical music. The manual is intended for music and drama educators, educators, teachers, librarians, playroom leaders, as well as the widest possible readership – parents, grandparents… The first part is theoretical, designed as an introduction to the rich selection of examples that follow and which, we believe, will be valuable to all who work with younger children. It may sound immodest, but we dare to say that we have discovered a new horizon in the field of music teaching."
