This beautifully written and illustrated book is about an obese bear that eats lots of sugary, unhealthy food but is afraid to change his ways. His neighborhood friends help Junkfood Bear (affectionately named "JB") to become the best bear he can be by learning the benefits of exercising and eating right.

Children can identify with Junkfood Bear's struggle to eat healthy and laugh out loud in his victory as he "saves the day". Each reading will help to reinforce a child's feeling that he or she can make choices.

Eating healthy is one such choice. And as Junkfood Bear learns in this story, eating can be fun and healthy!
