“How We Eat is filled with crisp, inviting photographs; what sets this board book apart is its inclusivity—feeding tubes, adaptive cutlery, and chopsticks are just a few of the tools used to nourish little ones.” - Kirkus
“★ Meaningful and inclusive.” - Kirkus Starred Review
“Sharing a meal, nourishing bodies, and preparing food are essential pieces of human and cultural experiences; this sweet book makes clear that everyone is a part of that.” - Kirkus Starred Review
“What really sets this title apart…are the beautiful images, taken by various photographers. Some look like a snapshot of a moment in time, a tired new parent with baby, for example. Others capture intentional memories like a celebratory dish and beaming faces. People depicted are diverse in terms of race and ability; included also are a hijabi and a child using a wheelchair.” - Kirkus Starred Review
“Representing diverse families from around the globe, each picture begs to be studied in detail. Readers will want to know what is being eaten and by whom. They may also be intrigued by the wide-ranging consumption methods and how they are compared to what their families eat and how they eat it. Back matter includes age-appropriate discussion questions.” - School Library Journal
