Foodie Faces is just genius. This series of emotive faces rendered from pieces of food, will cause the most serious mien to bend into a smile. The magic that the Wurtzel team brings to these pages creates the best kind of learning, where knowledge just happens in the process of discovery and enjoyment. If you don't  love Foodie Faces your heart is astray indeed.

Find twenty-two different emotions inside the pages of this book, made out of everything from strawberries to pita bread to carrots (and more). You'll be amazed by how real these foodie faces look . . . and might be inspired to try a new food or two!
