The topic on a recent TV show was obese children. The startling statistic, 1 out of 5 children is obese in the US, was overshadowed by the alarming increase in obese children (54% over the last ten years). "Awesome Teen" is a fitness guide that teenagers can read & use to make positive changes in their life style. Arnold Schwarzenegger wrote the foreword for this book for boys & girls ages 12-18. Arnold has this to say, "This book is an excellent example of the grassroots effort & support that is so needed in this country if we are to reverse the decline in youth fitness." "Awesome Teen" is candidly written in teen vernacular. The author's use of photographs of teens exercising, along with charts the readers can use to plan their fitness routine, make this book "user friendly." A section on food choices includes "smart choice" recipes, simple in preparation & written so the teen can prepare the recipes. Linda Johnson, a high school teacher in the Houston independent school district has this to say about "Awesome Teen": "I've taught nutrition & exercise to students & had to obtain information from several sources. Now I have it all in one book! The point system is a great motivator."
