They are helped through their exploration by Ms Fraser-Smith, who teaches them the difference between a right and poor diet, the importance of vitamins and how to design a ‘just so diet’ (after the Just So stories) There are menu suggestions for Bob and Margaret at the end, to relay to their mother.
