Special Sprouts

By Chantilly Smith

Pig's mother made something new for dinner tonight. It's green and round and smells yucky.

Mom says it's called Brussels sprouts. Pig doesn't want to try it but Mom always tells him to close his eyes and imagine the flavors of his favorite foods.

Take your taste buds on an adventure with Pig, as he uses his imagination to overcome the scariness of trying something new. Celebrate with him when he realizes that this new food is something he actually loves!

In Chantilly Smith's debut title, "Special Sprouts", she uses the experiences of her son and his fear of eating special sprouts (Brussels sprouts) to take your taste buds on a field trip of imagination. Children at home can use this technique to get over the fear of trying new foods or trying anything new in life. Imagination is the key to overcoming fear from a picky eater in this sweet children's picture book, but even if you aren't raising a picky eater, you'll be sure to love sharing this cute story with your little ones. It is a rhyming children's picture story book to discourage picky eating habits, encourage early literacy and help develop phonemic awareness with your young readers.
