The Salty Avocado: A Rotten Fruit Finds Redemption After an Accident Through the Perseverance of Friends.
Author: Aaron Cohen
Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN: 9781793381798
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 34
Book Description
The Salty Avocado is a children's book about a truly rotten fruit who finds redemption in the healing power of raspberry hugs. The book features Chris Piascik's vibrant illustrations and style-defining lettering matched with Aaron Cohen's playful and endearing story. This book is for kids who like big colors and catchy words, but it's also for parents who end up reading the same story every single night. (This is every parent.) The Salty Avocado wasn't always so salty, in fact, he used to be one of the more popular members of his home in the fridge. Then one day, an accident changed him. It wasn't his fault, but after that day Avocado's mood turned dark and there wasn't anything any of his food friends could do. Little by little the other foods desserted (get it?) him. Soon he was all alone and liked it that way. Can anything change Avocado back to his gregarious self? With whimsical rhymes and rousing illustrations, The Salty Avocado teaches the value of friendship in the face of adversity.

Avocado
Author: Jeff Miller
Publisher: Reaktion Books
ISBN: 1789142407
Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 149
Book Description
The avocado is arguably the most iconic food of the twenty-first century. In less than one-hundred years, it has gone from a little-known regional delicacy to global embrace and social media fame. This may seem like an astounding trajectory for a fruit that isn’t sweet, that gets bitter when it is cooked, and has perhaps the oddest texture of any fruit or vegetable. But it is precisely the avocado’s contradictions that have contributed to its ascent: the idea that this rich and delicious fruit is also healthy despite being fatty and energy-dense grants it unicorn status with modern eaters, especially millennials. Through lively anecdotes, colorful pictures, and delicious recipes, Jeff Miller explores the meteoric rise of the avocado, from its coevolution with the megaherbivores of the Pleistocene to its acceptance by the Spanish conquistadors in Mexico, to its current dominance of food consumers’ imaginations.
