Another Edition of Foodie Books for Kids

Like I mentioned in my previous post, I’ve created a big ol’ long list of delicious books for kids. The young are incredibly impressionable – now is the time to indoctrinate them*!

-- Bear Wants More by Karma Wilson, illustrated by Jane Chapman (McElderry, 2003)
-- Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs by Judi Barrett, illustrated by Ron Barrett (Atheneum, 1978)
-- Cooking Rocks!: Rachael Ray’s 30-Minute Meals for Kids (Lake Isle, 2004) - say what you want about her, but this is one of the only kids’ cookbooks I’ve discovered that was actually written with kids in mind
-- Dish series by Diane Muldrow and Barbara Pollak (Grosset & Dunlap)
-- Fast Food! Gulp! Gulp! by Bernard Waber (Walter Lorraine, 2001)
-- I Will Never Not Ever Eat a Tomato by Lauren Child (Candlewick, 2000)
-- Maple Syrup Season by Ann Purmell, illustrated by Jill Weber (Holiday House, 2008) - yes, there’s a season for it!

Stay tuned - I still have more on my list!

Eat, drink, and help your kids do so healthfully.


*I do say this with tongue-in-cheek. I always encourage individualism and free-thinking in children.
