  This series aims to increase children's awareness of the importance of looking after their bodies. Straightforward, easy-to-understand information about the care of hands and feet, advising young readers about the importance of keeping them clean, wearing well-fitting shoes and getting advice from the chiropodist about foot problems. This book stresses how important our hands and feet are to us and gives lots of advice on how to look after them. For instance, how to avoid getting chapped fingers, how to prevent cuts from becoming infected, what to do about rashes and how to avoid chilblains. The author discusses problems that affect feet - such as verruca and athlete's foot - and how to treat them. Sensible, but not overbearing advice is given on wearing the correct shoes for certain activities, such as sport, walking and going out in wet weather.
