I’m excited to let you know April 6th is Caramel Popcorn Day I thought I would share children’s books featuring Popcorn with you and a fun coloring page the kids can do.
“Pull up a chair and dig in! POPCORN is chock-full of tidbits about one of America’s favorite snack foods. Learn what makes popcorn pop, how Native Americans liked their popcorn, and how television almost wiped out popcorn’s future. Cooking tips, recipes, and resources included.”
To keep up with demand, Popcorn Nell buys a very large popping machine, but when it pops day and night, it makes more than enough popcorn.
Tomie dePaola’s The Popcorn Book (40th Anniversary Edition)
Everyone loves popcorn! Newly updated with the latest research, a delicious 40th anniversary edition of a POP-ular classic.
Tony likes to cook. Tiny likes to read. And both twins like to eat . . . POPCORN!
So while Tiny cooks it, Tony reads about it: what popcorn is, how it’s stored and prepared, legends and stories about it, and its history in Europe and North America.
A favorite since its original release in 1978, The Popcorn Book has sold nearly a million copies. This fresh new edition features refreshed interiors with bolder colors, and revised text– updated with new information and vetted for accuracy by a Native American expert.
Colorful, funny, and informative, this nonfiction classic from the best-selling author-illustrator of Quiet, Strega Nona, and many more will teach you everything you need to know about this favorite snack food– and leave you hungry for more. And because the best thing about popcorn is eating it, two great recipes for popping corn are included!
