A gentle story about big feelings, dinnertime drama, and learning that love means showing up-even when things don't go your way.
When a little boy is told he can't have his favourite pasta, frustration bubbles up fast. It's lumpy, it's yucky, and it's not what he wanted! But with a calm voice, a patient heart, and a dash of encouragement, Mum helps him find his bravery and give something new a tiny try.
This beautifully illustrated story introduces young children to:
Emotion regulation
Boundaries and flexibility
The courage to try new things
Perfect for picky eaters, strong-willed little ones, and the parents who love them.
