Plus they’re fun to read.

It doesn't really work that way! I do expose my one-year-old daughter to a wide variety of foods—basically, everything that I eat, I offer her. But has that made her into a good eater? Not reeeeeeally. I mean, she'll take down an entire avocado, but when I give her a piece of roast chicken or a meatball, she looks at me like she's pretty sure she's adopted.
That's why I read her lots of fun picture books about food — because they're great books, and because maybe they'll make her curious enough to try something new.
A Little Bit of Soul Food by Amy Wilson Sanger
From Amy Wilson Sanger's fabulous World Snacks series, this board book is all about a soul food family potluck—biscuits and gravy, grits, gumbo and fried chicken. The beautifully textured art is made of quilted fabrics. Super cool for toddlers. Buy it here.
