How Do You Eat Color?
Description
A day's journey through a rainbow of fruits and vegetables.
Do you know how red tastes? What about blue, orange, purple, or even white? As a boy, a girl, and their chameleon go through their day, they meet a bounty of colorful fruits and vegetables. They wake up with bright tomatoes and hibiscus, taste sunshine in yellow pineapples and mangoes, yawn with purple yams, and drift off to sleep as the colors darken to black.
Translated from Filipino, this imaginative book features produce harvested from the Philippines and around the world. Whether children love carrots, moringa, dragon fruit, eggplants, or red beans, How Do You Eat Color? offers them dozens of different--and delicious--opportunities to eat something new. Engaging back matter after the story will help readers explore healthy eating and learn ways to incorporate plants into their meals.

"Explodes off the page with vivid images of delicious fruits and vegetables that are as delightful to read about as they are enticing to imagine munching on...offers a heady synesthetic mix of sensory experiences. And the bonus? It's all good for you!" -- Global Literature in Libraries Initiative
Booklist (starred review)
"Truly engaging . . . lyrical and vibrant."
Kirkus Reviews
"David's use of figurative language is downright delicious, while Doctor deftly uses different hues of the same color within a single page, with dynamic results . . . A delectable journey through the imagination--and the palate."
