Sometimes mealtimes can be a battle with young children, especially
when they don't want to try new foods. How can we best help
children understand that it can take time to like a new food? And
how can we develop their vocabulary so they can articulate how they
are feeling about food? Penny Tassoni, leading Early Years
education consultant, author and trainer, presents a picture book
with simple words and delightful full-colour illustrations by Mel
Four that encourages children to change their attitudes towards
food through looking at shapes and colours, talking about textures
and generally making food more interesting. In doing so, young
children will build on their self-care skills, behaviour and
routines when it comes to healthy eating. Time to Eat is the
perfect book for putting a positive and fun spin on mealtimes and
food. It also includes a page of practical advice and tips for
practitioners, carers and parents on fussy eating.
New York Times bestselling and award-winning author Jason Reynolds’s debut picture book is a snappy, joyous ode to Word King, literary genius, and glass-ceiling smasher Langston Hughes and the luminaries he inspired.
Back in the day, there was a heckuva party, a jam, for a word-making man. The King of Letters. Langston Hughes. His ABCs became drums, bumping jumping thumping like a heart the size of the whole country. They sent some people yelling and others, his word-children, to write their own glory.
Maya Angelou, Amiri Baraka, and more came be-bopping to recite poems at their hero’s feet at that heckuva party at the Schomberg Library, dancing boom da boom, stepping and stomping, all in praise and love for Langston, world-mending word man. Oh, yeah, there was hoopla in Harlem, for its Renaissance man. A party for Langston.

trout with a yell. "What a marvellous treat - something tasty to
eat. And I'm just getting peckish as well!" The worm said,"I'm
