What People Are Saying About Our Books

“Grow Me Well" is a great book and teaching resource. Superb!! It's like the whole first year of a nutritional therapy degree simplified for kids. So useful personally- and a great teaching tool too. Thanks so much!"
Robyn Phillips School Teacher, London (UK)
“I am a first year mature student doing my Bachelor of Nursing Degree. I had trouble in Biology for the first semester and tried different avenues to assist my learning but to no avail. Then I came across Grow Me Well in the library and have read this endlessly for the last couple of months. As this book matches my style of learning it has helped me to finally pass two exams. I'm now awaiting the result for my Nutrition & Metabolism Assignment. Thank you all once again."

Nursing Student, Auckland, NZ
"Exploring Nature's Pattern Magic is a stunning montage of bright natural colours with photos from tiny swan plant seeds to helix spirals on snails. Nature is brimming with shapes and patterns that all have purpose."
Desna
School Librarian, Christchurch (NZ)
“ Grow Me Well" negotiates the simple relationships between eating well and attaining superb health in a fun and easily readable format. As a nutrition educator, it is reassuring to see a sound foundation in nutrition science underpinning this story. New Zealand-authored nutrition books of this genre are rare, I would go so far as to say this is the best book to support New Zealand nutrition education that I have seen."
Wendy Slatter DHSC, M ED (HONS)
Nutrition Educator, Auckalnd, NZ
“Thanks for the copies of "Feed Me Right" as prizes for our listeners I’m just letting you know that I just gave away a copy of Feed Me Right today, and WOW the amount of callers trying to get through to win a copy was amazing! It made my day I couldn't stop smiling, I can't wait to do it again tomorrow!

“Congratulations on Grow Me Well, it's such a great book. We are using Grow Me Well as a resource for our year 10 food and nutrition classes. We have put it in the budget for next year to purchase a class set of this wonderful book."
