Hi everyone,

So were "officially" a vegetarian family as of a couple weeks ago.

I'm wondering if anyone has some story time books to recommend which have a vegan/vegetarian flavor and support understanding of animals, etc...?

peace, eric, diana, & shanti

It is a cookbook story book Leprechaun Cake and Other Tales: [www.vrg.org]
My son and I enjoyed it very much.

I found a link that sells vegetarian themed children's books! Its a site called the Lunch Box Bunch and is operated by a lifelong vegetarian!

Well it looks like there is a demand for sure for young childrens vegetarian themed books ha?

Thanks mothersson2002,

Those are some useful resources. I am looking for more baby storytime and didn't see anything like that there- seemed like those were all for older kids.

Though aimed at older children, I found another list of vegetarian friendly books!

Hey,

Congrats!!!!!!!!

I?m copying part of an email from a lovely lady at PETA.

"Here are a few books that give tips on explaining vegetarianism to children. One is ?Cows Are Vegetarians: A Book for Vegetarian Kids? by Ann Bradley, Stephen Kramer (Illustrator) and Elise Huffman (Illustrator). It is designed for children from 6 to 12 years old. Another good book is ?Herb, the Vegetarian Dragon (Barefoot Books)? by Jules Bass and Debbie Harter (Illustrator). A book that might be helpful to you right now is ?That?s Why We Don?t Eat Animals? by Ruby Roth"

Peace, and good luck!

I've got two for you: "That's Why We Don't Eat Animals" - can't remember the author, but great book, beautiful illustrations. The other is a little golden book (believe it or not) called "The Tawny Scrawny Lion." Happy Reading!
