Books like Vegetables in Underwear
By Jared Chapman
For the kid who just left diapers behind and wants everyone to know it, this book turns underwear pride into a full-blown celebration. Silly, bouncy, and proud, with rhymes made for chanting out loud.
A joyful little girl romps through rhyme after rhyme declaring she likes herself completely — messy hair, beaver breath, and all — no matter what anyone thinks.
A man walks down the road and meets a donkey with only three legs, then keeps adding one silly detail after another until the description spirals into an entirely absurd creature.
A rhyming board book invites toddlers to pull a tab on each page and discover where different animals go to poop — then learn where they themselves should go.
A Siamese kitten with an overactive imagination transforms into El Skippito, a mask-and-cape sword-fighter, ready to take on banditos and a bad bumble-beeto to save the day.
A hungry creature works its way through a snack-filled alphabet, eating everything in sight from A to P before regret sets in — and a resolution to change follows.
A humble slice of pie always pushes the spotlight onto everyone else, but a school project with his best friend Jake the Cake forces him to ask whether staying quiet is really so sweet.
A beloved family dog named Hally Tosis has breath so terrible her family wants to give her away, so the kids try every trick they can think of to fix her putrid panting before it's too late.
A dog who hates baths buries the scrubbing brush and runs off for a day of adventure, getting so filthy that his own family no longer recognizes him.
A self-conscious giraffe named Edward hates his long, bendy neck and tries every trick he can think of to hide it — until a slow-moving turtle helps him see it differently.
A little werewolf tries to settle down for the night in a cold gray tomb full of monsters, but a mischievous goon barges in determined to keep everyone from sleeping.
Dragons love tacos more than anything, so a party planner throws them a giant taco party — but forgets that spicy salsa turns dragons into fire-breathing disasters.
A parade of rhyming oddballs takes readers from near to far and here to there — a bumpy Wump, a singing Ying, a winking Yink who drinks pink ink — with no plot but plenty of silly counting and rhyming along the way.
