Every year my guidance counselor comes to me for good books on hygiene and
cleanliness with 2nd-4th graders. I searched the archives for children's
books on hygiene and found the titles at the bottom of this list on a hit.
Some seem to be quite old. The titles listed at the top were from my search
of Amazon.com. I am looking for your opinion on these and any other titles
you can suggest. TIA
