Speaking as a teacher, this is a great book to introduce children to the idea of eating healthier. Kids always want ice cream and candy. Teaching them why they need to eat other snack foods will help to save many of today's generation.
This story gives the role model to grandparents as they take their grandchildren out to a special restaurant that features "Chew Chew", a buffet train, that features healthy snacks such as fruit, vegetables, and nuts. It redirects kids' attention to the healthy food groups away. You know, the ones that don't taste as good as the sugary snacks so often promoted on TV. This is a great way to promote why healthy snacks are a better choice. Grandparents are heroes for taking the kids to a better selection of healthy food choices.
"Chew, Chew The Food Chain Train" is a great way to introduce younger children on how to eat healthy foods. Choice is important, especially in helping tho preserve the health of the new generation. Teaching wise snack choices are important, and this is a great way to do it.

To all parents, teachers and health care professionals this book is absolutely the best tool for teaching children about eating healthy and making it right. It's a darn shame that this type of thing don't exist here.
A set of grandparents are taking their grandchildren out to eat. When asked what they'd like to eat, the boy responded with chicken nuggets and the girl wants fries. The two grandparents decide they are going to ride their bikes to go out to eat. They arrive at a place called "Chew-Chew the Food Chain Train Restaurant".
As soon as they sit down, a small train comes chugging into the room where they are seated. On the train, they can choose from several types of foods. The train comes around to the tables. The train even carries the plates and utensils. From fruits, veggies and nuts, this train carries it all.

Chew Chew the food chain train by Janet Michelson
Illustrated colorful children's book showing the day the kids go with their grandparents for a meal. The kids want fries and chicken nuggets and the adults want fruits and vegetables.
At the beginning of the book it gives you ideas on how make gardens and eat healthy.
They ended up at the chew chew train restaurant. The train delivered plates and silverware and told them to help themselves to the banquet. It had all kinds of fresh fruits and vegetables that they could choose from.
Shows many choices of what they want, salad and berries.

Short & simple
I like the colorful pictures, the choices of food given, and no negativity. The length is perfect for an adult to read with a child and add some short discussions here & there. Done correctly it could be a great resource and a fun game to help children think when it's time to prepare for a meal or when shopping. So,... "All aboard! Let's get on the Chew Chew Train and eat healthier!" 👍🤗
