Happy Tuesday, readers! Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly blog challenge hosted by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl. Every Tuesday, multiple bloggers share their favorite books from a selected topic. Today’s topic is “Best Books Involving Food (That are not Cookbooks)”, which was more challenging that I expected. It turns out that my personal disdain for cooking means I haven’t read many books with foodie characters. But I have read lots of kids books about food.
- Dragons Love Tacos by Adam Rubin & illustrated by Daniel Salmieri – If you only ever buy one kids book, make it this one.
- Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Suess
- If You Give a Mouse a Cookie by Laura Joffe Numeroff & illustrated by Felicia Bond
- James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl
- Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs by Judi Barrett & illustrated by Ron Barrett
- Dragons Love Tacos 2 by Adam Rubin & illustrated by Daniel Salmieri
- The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle
- Jamberry by Bruce Degen
- It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown by Charles M. Schulz
- Chicka Chicka Boom Boom by Bill Martin Jr. and John Archambault & illustrated by Lois Ehlert
Have you read any of these? Which of your favorite books also feature food?
