Book Nook - Bokky for Breakfast

 

Jossie is NOT a typical toddler.


Jossie’s favorite time is mealtime. She loves trying new, yummy foods. 


Sometimes yummy foods are crunchy. Sometimes yummy foods are soft. Sometimes yummy foods taste salty, and sometimes they taste sweet. 


But when Jossie asks Mommy for a certain yummy food for breakfast one morning, it’s not what you would expect!


Will Mommy figure out what Jossie wants to eat?
