his family struggling with, and in most cases, overcoming
everyday obstacles to health and fitness as they learn to
change their lifestyle.

Food and No Play Make Jack a Fat Boy is an entertaining
and informative guide for how parents can make small easy
changes to create a healthier, happier and more balanced
lifestyle for both themselves and their families.
