    About this ebook

    When Brian's brain goes out on strike, he finds himself in a series of unfortunate and embarrassing situations. ... What do we do in the bathroom in the mornings? ... Cannot remember which shoe goes on which foot ... Ending up in the wrong class at school ... Forgetting how to do maths and not being able to spell the simplest of words - why can't he remember things? If Brian's terrible day is to get any better, he may have to learn to take better care of himself and start listening to his body.

    This book will help children understand nutrition and the importance of healthy eating. This story is told as a metaphor to read aloud to children and enjoy together. The vibrant illustrations and use of language draws children in to be part of the adventure, gently guiding them alongside the characters to get the message on a more personal level for them, to make their own meanings and take control of their own life situation - in their own way.

      Brian - Dave Diggle

      Brian_CS_cover.pdf6298.jpgBrian01.tif

      Brian was like most other little boys: he loved to play with his PlayStation, watch his favourite TV shows and, most of all, eat junk food!

      He would love to sit and chomp on chips while watching a cartoon or sip on a fizzy drink while slouching in his beanbag with his Game Boy.

      Brian would have chocolate on toast for breakfast, a chip sandwich for lunch, and a burger for dinner, and always finished off with dessert — not to mention the sweets in-between.

      One morning Brian woke to the sound of his alarm clock. Oh no, time for school again, mumbled Brain with
