webLongDescription

Now in a new board-book format: a whimsical word book of rhyming things that can – or can't – be eaten!

Can you eat...

A pea? A pear? A bee? A bear?

In this spin-off board book to the bestselling picture-book companion, food critic (and dad) Joshua David Stein asks the question, "Can you eat...?" followed by a lyrical list of illustrated items. From familiar items like apple pie and pineapple to the more nonsensical, like underpants and elephants, this read-aloud twist on a first book of food offers plenty of giggles, with simple yet sophisticated hand-drawings by Julia Rothman that provide authenticity and a balance of seriousness to the silliness at hand.

Ages 1–3
