USA, Feeding a Superhero (in color)

You would reach for this book when the dinner table has become a battlefield and you need a positive, science-backed way to encourage your child to try new foods. Rather than relying on power struggles, this book leverages a child's natural fascination with superheroes to explain the 'why' behind nutrition. Written by a Registered Dietitian, it frames eating not as a chore, but as a way to fuel specific 'superpowers' like speed, strength, and brainpower. The story uses a fun superhero motif to explore the connection between what we eat and how our bodies function. It builds self-confidence by giving children agency over their health and encourages a sense of pride in making 'super' choices. It is perfectly suited for preschoolers and early elementary students who are transitioning into the 'big kid' phase and want to understand how their bodies work. By shifting the focus from 'finishing your plate' to 'fueling your hero,' parents can transform mealtime into an empowering experience.
