Book Reviews of The Gulps
Book Review: A recipe for creating eating disorders
Summary: 1 Stars
I love the work of both Marc Brown and Rosemary Wells, and that's why I am so very disappointed at this joint effort. These artists are the last ones I would have expected to produce such an unimaginative and ill-informed book. The message here is that fat people are lazy, gluttonous slobs who could very well "fix" their obesity by getting off the couch and eating a few veggies. Hello, have either of these folks read Gina Kolata's new book? Or any of the actual research on obesity? This book is guaranteed to make kids even more self-conscious about their weight and "healthy eating"--which in my very sad personal experience is a perfect recipe for creating eating disorders. As my grandmother would have said, this book is a shanda--a shameful thing.
