Hide your candy… Hide them all from Ronnie!

Ronnie loves being lazy… and eating candy. Actually, all the candy in the world is not enough for him! When a hungry giant jelly bear threatens to devour all his town, his bad habits will need to change. Ronnie has to jump, run and outsmart the giant bear. Will he save his town?

A candylicious picture book that will have kids bravely face their lazy sugar cravings, even if they are as big as Ronnie’s giant jelly bear… If Ronnie can, they can too!

What will children learn from this book? A healthy lifestyle can be taught to kids at an early age with lifelong positive effects on both body and mind. Using self-projection storytelling, this children’s book will encourage kids to confidently conquer the ‘big bear’ that represents their own laziness and bad eating habits. Let’s eat healthy and stay active!

“I wish this jelly bear would grow to become a giant so I’d have a giant amount of candy to eat!” said Ronnie before he went to sleep.

Weird noises woke Ronnie up in the middle of the night. He turned the lights on and couldn't believe his eyes...

The jelly bear was alive... and was devouring all his room. With every bite, the bear was growing bigger and BIGGER!

Review

***** 5 Stars on Readers' Favorite"... a solution to the problem of sweet addiction in a way that is interesting to readers."This story is a fun way to help children understand the consequences of overeating. It will also teach them to eat healthily and indulge in physical activity to remain fit. The illustrations are delightful and they bring the concept, the characters and the scenes alive for young readers. I like the way the author finds a solution to the problem of sweet addiction in a way that is interesting to readers. It is a good story for parents and tutors to help children understand the problems of having too much of sugar, and if there is a child at home or in class who loves to eat bonbons, jellies and other sweets, then this story is the best way to make them understand the consequences of indulging in them. - Review by Mamta Madhavan for Readers' Favorite.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cute story teaching healthy habits
Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2018

Description:
Ronnie loves candy and just wants to eat it all day and never play or exercise, despite his friends urging him to stop eating candy and play with them. One night before bed his wishes his last gummy bear will grow huge so that he will have a ton to eat. He then dreams about his gummy bear going on a eating rampage, destroying the whole town! In order to save the town he talks the bear into playing and exercising away all his jelly belly. The next day he wakes up with a new attitude and goes out to play with his friends.

Pros:
The art is cute, bright and colorful. The story is well written and gives children a good variety of words to learn. It's a really cute story and I enjoyed it a lot up until the last page which felt more like a dark precursor to him going back to his old ways or something. Overall there is a very good message of not eating too many sweets and doing a lot of fun physical activities. This book is good for any kids like Ronnie who like to over-indulge in candy and don't want to be active. Also a good warning that sugar before bed can give you some strange nightmares.

Cons:
I wish there had been a little more emphasis on moderation. Going from eating a lot of candy to zero doesn't seems like a good long term solution. The same way diets fail, the child will probably fall back on old habits once the weight is lost and/or the nightmare forgotten. This is also an issue that is the parent's responsibility as well, but nothing here really helps the parent to understand the importance of a healthy diet for the child, and how to control treat portions. Ronnie isn't getting his hands on all that candy on his own after all. I'm not sure if all kids will understand the consequence because they aren't gummy bears who eat houses, but hopefully the message will be effective to those who need it.

4.0 out of 5 stars TOO MUCH OF A GOOD THING....
Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2018
Verified Purchase
Little Ronnie just can't get enough of sweets, especially candy. In fact, Ronnie is not so little anymore and all his friends warn him about the consequences of eating too many sweets. But Ronnie seems to ignore them. One night he goes to bed after eating all but one yellow jelly bean. He makes a wish that this yellow bear continue to grow so that Ronnie will never run out of candy to eat. Sure enough, Ronnie's wish comes true and yellow bear causes destruction in half the town. Ronnie will need to come up with a clever plan to stop the horrendous results of the event he has put into motion. Children learn that all our actions have consequences. Certainly too much of what appears to be a good thing might turn out just to be the opposite. Recommended for preschoolers and elementary school children.

I have reviewed two other books in this author's series, Maya's Secret and I'm Selling My Dad's Shoes with 5 star ratings. One thing I would like to note is that a comment from my review of Maya's Secret in May, 2018 appears in the summary under author's comments about all the books in this series. That comment is pertinent to Maya's Secret, not the entire book series.

The pictures and basic story line are excellent and the moral is clear--self control and balance are necessary. Rather than fat-shaming, the kids are trying to get Ronnie to join them in their activities. The book is charming, clever, and bright with strong illustrations.

This book has a great message about eating healthy. I teach kindergarten and have used this book as part of our healthy eating unit. There is one student I teach who is the real life Ronnie. This ones for him! I hope he has the same conversion experience as Ronnie.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely brilliant!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 20, 2019
Verified Purchase
This is a brilliant children's book, both written and illustrated by Daniel Georges, that promotes healthy eating and exercise, but in a subtle way as part of the story, not smacking you round the face with it! I read this with my nieces and they were saying the rhyme for the rest of the day (at least - sorry sis if they did it after that!), so it obviously sticks with children, even if it won't stop them eating sweets completely! A fun read I'd recommend for children of all ages.
