Are You Eating Something Red?

Foods come in all shapes, sizes, and colors. There are red foods like tomato, strawberry, apple, and watermelon. And yellow foods like corn, summer squash, pineapple, and banana. Purple foods include grapes, eggplants, plums, and raisins. There are orange foods like carrots, yams, and apricots—and green foods like celery, broccoli, lettuce, and peas!

Come along as Greenie picks and eats their favorites of each colored food. If you were Greenie, which foods would you choose? Everyone should try new flavors, but do you have one fruit or vegetable you like better than all the rest?

With the much-loved character from Greenie Grows a Garden, Are You Eating Something Red? is a food primer that serves up a variety of fruits and vegetables. The story asks readers to think about which foods they’d prefer (or like to try), while Greenie picks their own favorite from each color group. Written and illustrated by Ryan Sias and published by Blue Apple Books.
