A toddler’s appetite takes an odd turn

A hungry toddler searches for something to quiet a rumbling tummy, but the menu veers into rocks, slime, and cactus. That contrast between familiar mealtime hunger and decidedly inedible possibilities gives this picture book its comic premise. The setup also turns a common toddler habit—putting things in their mouths—into a playful food-themed scenario, with the question of what actually counts as food at its center.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Families seeking a food-themed book for toddlers and preschoolers
  • Young children who enjoy silly, outlandish pretend-food ideas
  • Adults looking for a playful read-aloud about toddler curiosity

Book overview

Toddlers put EVERYTHING into their mouths, much to the horror of parents everywhere! The child at the center of That's Not Food! is super hungry, but is looking to stop the tummy grumbles in all the wrong places. Readers will come face to face with outlandish options: Rock meatballs! Slime pie! Spiny cactus pancakes! Will our toddler finally say "YES" to the chewy things that also make a tummy happy? Find out in this funny book that is definitely... NOT FOOD.
