What’s Your Favorite Food?

In the fourth book of the What’s Your Favorite series, Carle and 13 other creators introduce their chosen foods in vignettes ranging from exuberant odes to factual descriptions. Dan Santat’s favorite meal is an inviting bowl of ramen, and he presents the quintessential bottles of soy and chili sauces alongside the dish. Laurie Keller selects French fries as her favorite, with a smiling potato reminiscent of her spud from Potato Pants! (She also fibs a little: “Do you know how French fries are made? Well, the sun is a giant potato and when its potato rays turn golden and crispy they fall to Earth!”) Karen Katz selects matzo ball soup, enjoyed by a child in pink, Felicita Sala chooses paella, and Shannon Wright highlights chicken alfredo. Another fun collaboration that will have readers thinking about their own favorite foods. Ages 4–8. [em](July) [/em]
