Just as you thought it was safe to encourage your daughters to start using the library out pops a book that is destined climb through the charts as a must read. upon its release in October. A diet book for kids.''Maggie goes on a Diet''
The book tells the story of 14-year-old Maggie, who according to its blurb "is transformed from being overweight and insecure to a normal-sized teen who becomes the school soccer star". Maggie is depicted as dumpy, pigtailed, wearing an unflattering jumper , staring into the mirror, presumably dreaming of a thinner self who will one day wear the tiny pink prom dress she's holding wistfully to her chest.
I appreciate there are a lot of overweight kids but mainly thats due to fast food and lack of exercise. Over to the mothers...what do others think?
