Healthy Kids, Healthy Planet is an engaging and educational book for children aged 7-10 that explores the harmful effects of smoking and vaping on human health and the environment. Through fun activities and illustrations, the book helps children understand the impact of tobacco use on their health and the world around them, encouraging healthier choices.
Endorsed by Dr. Guido Van Hal, professor of social epidemiology at the University of Antwerp, Belgium, and a leading expert in public health and tobacco control; the Smoking Cessation Team at UZ Leuven; and Dr. Tânia M. Cavalcante, National Cancer Institute and Executive Secretary of the National Committee for the Implementation of the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control in Brazil, this book offers a new resource for fostering a tobacco-free generation.
"Healthy Kids, Healthy Planet is first and foremost a fun book! The beautiful illustrations encourage further reading, and the limited text per page makes it digestible for children. The combination of cigarettes/vapes, environment, and health ties several important topics together. Marília Breite has created a visually appealing book and a fantastic tool to help towards a smoke-free generation. Highly recommended!"

"A great initiative. This book takes a different approach to raising awareness about the consequences of smoking. Educational and innovative, it helps facilitate conversations with children about smoking, the environment, and health."
