This beautifully illustrated storybook introduces children to the five basic tastes and improves their descriptive terminology by following charming little taste buds on their many trips to the town of Taste. On their trips, the buds visit one by one the home of all the residents of this special town: the castle of Sweetie, the mansion of Salty, the beach hut of Sour and the ecofriendly tree house of Bitter. The buds soon discover that, if they want to have fun in the town of Taste, they should use moderation and balance; they should care about quantity and portions. When Umami arrives to town, the residents of the town of Taste will also learn their lesson. They will learn how to accept someone different and live together in harmony. With a fun approach, Come Visit the Teeny Tiny Town of Taste helps children understand and welcome their capacity to look, smell, taste and touch food with love, curiosity, appreciation and fun. It promotes a positive interest towards food colors, shapes, aromas and flavors, and it introduces the idea of tasting all food groups using a moderate approach. This book also shows children that trying something new or getting to know someone different should be exciting. An accurate appendix provides terminology and information for parents and educators about the human sensory ability.
