We have all experienced them....or maybe even have been one at one point in our life; a picky eater! My toddler currently lives his best life as a picky eater; hot dog for dinner, PB sandwich for lunch, carrots with hummus (which isn't so bad) but the point is...I'm always making 2 separate dinners (and his dairy allergy should be the only exception to that on some nights, like when we have pizza or Mac & Cheese.)
So, for all you parents out there who might have a picky eater or two of your own, here's some books I hope will help! (Or at least provide a good laugh.) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.
