Food, funny faces, and feelings combine in this cute and clever picture book about emotions and healthy eating.

No matter how you’re feeling — silly, grumpy, happy, or shy — now you can see your face mirrored back on your dinner plate! 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!

Genre:

"Though the concept is simple, the intricacies of each face beg for closer examination, and readers might find themselves transfixed in wonder at the fantastical creations.... A visually delightful experience."
Kirkus Reviews
"Engaging.... Fresh.... Playful."

School Library Journal
"Some picture books cry out to be shared.... From cover to cover, great fun."

Bill Wurtzel

About the Author

Bill Wurtzel is a visual artist who uses healthy food as his medium. He began making food art just to amuse his wife Claire as well as entice their kids and grandkids to eat what’s on their plate. He gets inspiration from the shapes, colors, and textures of food. After he snaps a photo, the “art” is eaten. Prints of Bill’s art have been exhibited in galleries and museums in the U.S and abroad. Bill and Claire, an educator, have co-authored 6 books illustrated with Bill’s food art (3 “Best Children’s Books”). Bill is a former award-winning advertising creative director (“World’s Best TV Commercials”). He is also a renowned jazz guitarist (Count Basie Countsmen, Harlem Blues & Jazz Band). With FUNGI, Bill takes food art in a new direction.
