Why read it?
1 author picked What Happens When You Eat? as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
When I used this book to research my book's backmatter, it kept disappearing because my kids kept stealing it off my desk to read it.
A lift-the-flap book made of sturdy, board-book-style paper, it’s accessible for young kids, but any age kid would enjoy it. It also talks about what foods are important to eat for growth and energy, and made it waaaay easier to have conversations with my kids about why we eat certain foods for dinner (yay, vitamins and minerals!) and why we limit certain foods to special occasions.
Adults and kids alike will learn something!
From Katherine's list on getting kids excited about eating.
