Hi Tricia -

I would greatly appreciate it if you could share with me the results of
your search on children's literature on nutrition, physical activity and
tobacco.

I work for the Peel Heart Health Network and we are organizing a Children's
Health Fair for Saturday October 24th, the purpose of which is to promote
our core messages for children: Don't smoke! Eat Healthy!  and Keep Moving!
 It would be great to hand out such a list of books and literature to
participants in our fair (or possibly do a display around such resources).

Yours in good health,
Linda Burdett
Project Coordinator
Peel Heart Health Network
