‘My Foodie ABC: A Little Gourmet’s Guide’
Artwork by Violet Lemay
Violet Lemay recently illustrated a new book for small children, soon to be released by DuoPress: My Foodie ABC: A Little Gourmet’s Guide. Written by Puck, this charming and unusual alphabet book explores unusual foods: everything from dragon fruit to nopales. The book can already be pre-ordered at Amazon.com, although it won’t officially be released until the fall. James Oseland, editor in chief of Saveur and cookbook author wrote of My Foodie ABC: “I love this sweet little book. It’s a delicious primer to the wide world of food and the glories of the alphabet.”

This looks really cool. Have you considered doing different versions for different types of ethnic foods? i.e. one that is all Mexican things and one that is all Thai etc.
