    Circle the correct answer:

    No? Thats because hunger can sometimes be

    hidden. You cant really see it. Kids who suerrom hidden hunger might look okay, but they arenot getting the vitamins and minerals their bodiesneed to stay healthy and grow properly.

    Find out how this aects these kids bytaking this True-or-False quiz.

    In some developing countries, one-third o the

    children this age arent healthy because theydont get enough ood or the right kind o ood.How many children would that be in this picture?
