Reach for this book when your child is facing a plate of unfamiliar food with a wrinkled nose or a firm no. While many books about eating focus on nutrition, this Mo Willems classic addresses the social and emotional bravery required to try something new, especially when it looks or smells different from what we know. It is a perfect tool for de-escalating mealtime tension through humor. The story follows Piggie as she excitedly prepares a traditional family dish called slop, and Gerald the elephant as he struggles with his intense disgust. Through their interaction, children see a beautiful model of how to be an honest friend while still being brave enough to honor someone else's culture or preferences. It is an essential read for preschoolers navigating the world of sensory sensitivities and social politeness.
