Language: English
Edition: 7th edition

Description: Original dark blue cloth binding with embossed text on cover and gilt lettering on spine. Frontispiece silhouette illustration "Health for All." Pages are tanned, and there is evidence of historical dampstain. Binding is firm. This book was prepared for the National Tuberculosis Association in consultation with Charles M. DeForest of the NTA. The book is structured by health promotion topic, but internally within these topics, by curriculum by grade, from first through 8th grades. The writer acknowledges that most children at the time of writing do not attain more than an 8th grade education, and so if they are to gain a knowledge of health, it must occur before then. The material included in the book is intended to be integrated with reading, language, civics, history, physical education, geography, and art, with the understanding that health is not an isolated subject. There are didactic stories for classes, games and exercises, posture exercises, poems and quotations, school projects relating to health, nutrition exercises, and much more. From the nursing history collection of Sarah Abrams. Hardcover, acceptable condition due to dampstain. 405 pages, octavo.
