Summary: Hungry or Not
Review: Danielle is a nice and wondering girl at the age of 10, she was always wondering about little things that didn't even matter. Over the years she was always asking do u think I am fat, do u think that I am gaining weight, those were the type of questions you would think I little kid would worry about. Her parents were really never paying attention to her and didn't notice by the age of 13 she was too concern about her weight and not school work. When she hit the age 14 it was too late she developed an eating disorder and didn't care about anything in her life except not gaining weight. As the days past she ate less and less everyday, thinking that any food would cause harm to her skinny body. Her eating disorder was kind of like cigarettes, once you do it too many times you become addicted and nothing else mattered to her. Trying to only go on a small diet to lose a few pounds she was barging for more than she wanted and it was off to the races that's why this book is called Food Fight. I enjoyed reading this book because I think many teenagers can relate it easily. This story is exciting and will keep you on yours toes wanting to know what happens every step of the way.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Stop the "food fight"
Review: Food Fight by Janet Bode is a very helpful book. It's an easy read and not hard to understand at all. It includes real storied from the people and their family and friends. It helps me understand what really goes on with eating disorders and why they can be so hard to stop. It teaches you why eating disorders star, how to prevent then, and when to know you have gone to far with your "diet." It's for people who know people with an eating disorder or think you or someone you might know might have an eating disorder. It's a really helpful book I think! The people in the book tell real stories about how eating disorders affected their lives from family and friends points of view. To real people my age (young teens and teens) that has this problem and have gone through it already or who are going through it now. It's an amazing book about what happens in real life.
