Book Description
John Klassen’s I Want My Hat Back meets Lucy Ruth Cummins’s A Hungry Lion in this hilarious, deadpan story about a creature looking for a new friend after eating his last one. A little creature is looking for a new friend, but he’s not having any luck. Why is he looking for a new friend? Because he ate his old one. Heidi McKinnon delivers a hilariously macabre story with colorful illustrations and a satisfying, dry wit.

Book Description
In Helping Your Child with Extreme Picky Eating, a family doctor specializing in childhood feeding joins forces with a speech pathologist to help you support your child’s nutrition, healthy growth, and end meal-time anxiety (for your child and you) once and for all. Are you parenting a child with ‘extreme’ picky eating? Do you worry your child isn’t getting the nutrition he or she needs? Are you tired of fighting over food, suspect that what you’ve tried may be making things worse, but don’t know how to help? Having a child with ‘extreme’ picky eating is frustrating and sometimes scary. Children with feeding disorders, food aversions, or selective eating often experience anxiety around food, and the power struggles can negatively impact your relationship with your child. Children with extreme picky eating can also miss out on parties or camp because they can’t find “safe” foods. But you don’t have to choose between fighting over every bite and only serving a handful of safe foods for years on end. Helping Your Child with Extreme Picky Eating offers hope, even if your child has “failed” feeding therapies before. After gaining a foundation of understanding of your child’s challenges and the dynamics at play, you’ll be ready for the 5 steps (built around the clinically proven STEPS+ approach—Supportive Treatment of Eating in PartnershipS) that transform feeding and meals so your child can learn to enjoy a variety of foods in the right amounts for healthy growth. You’ll discover specific strategies for dealing with anxiety, low appetite, sensory challenges, autism spectrum-related feeding issues, oral motor delay, and medically-based feeding problems. Tips and exercises reinforce what you’ve learned, and dozens of “scripts” help you respond to your child in the heat of the moment, as well as to others in your child’s life (grandparents or your child’s teacher) as you help them support your family on this journey. This book will prove an invaluable guide to restore peace to your dinner table and help you raise a healthy eater.

Book Description
Transplanted Canadian, New Yorker writer and author of Paris to the Moon, Gopnik is publishing this major new work of narrative non-fiction alongside his 2011 Massey Lecture. An illuminating, beguiling tour of the morals and manners of our present food manias, in search of eating's deeper truths, asking "Where do we go from here?" Never before have so many North Americans cared so much about food. But much of our attention to it tends towards grim calculation (what protein is best? how much?); social preening ("I can always score the last reservation at xxxxx"); or graphic machismo ("watch me eat this now"). Gopnik shows we are not the first food fetishists but we are losing sight of a timeless truth, "the table comes first": what goes on around the table matters as much to life as what we put on the table: families come together (or break apart) over the table, conversations across the simplest or grandest board can change the world, pain and romance unfold around it--all this is more essential to our lives than the provenance of any zucchini or the road it travelled to reach us. Whatever dilemmas we may face as omnivores, how not what we eat ultimately defines our society. Gathering people and places drawn from a quarter century's reporting in North America and France, The Table Comes First marks the beginning a new conversation about the way we eat now.

Book Description
Ish Hasan is pretty sure he started out adult life a few wrenches short of an emotional toolbox. He was raised in hiding from immigration police; he grew up telling stories to his classmates of a childhood he’d never lived in a country he’d never seen. His primary role model was his father, who once scribbled out his own face in all the family’s pictures and never spoke about why. Ish didn’t know how to make friends, and he fled the moment any connection got too close to the heart of him. He loathed himself but barely recognized it. He’s also pretty sure he’s not the only one. Everywhere he looks, Ish sees men who are desperately lonely and alienated from themselves, who lack the emotional tools to live authentically and forge real connections with other people. He sees a world full of people living out someone else’s bucket list instead of their own. And he’s spent years of his life trying to break out of that cage. He’s been climbing dangerous mountains, taking plant medicines, doing yoga, vowing silence, speaking truth, jumping off cliffs, and couch-surfing across countries in a mad dash for freedom from the man he couldn’t stand to be any more. Now, he wants to help other men do the same. The First Lessons is a workbook for breaking out of business-as-usual. Stories from Ish’s remarkable life, the lessons he’s learned, and his reflections—on everything from death to buying $20 juice at a shop in Vancouver—give you a starting point for your own personal journey to authenticity. These are the lessons your father didn’t know to teach you, but they’re the ones your sons will need.
