Join us for a fun, interactive session presented by local author Narelle Wynter as she reads and brings to life her beautiful book I’d Rather EatChocolate. It's a humourous story about a boy, and his dad who would like his son to eat more veggies. The son’s response to eat up his veggies is ‘I’d rather eat chocolate,a cake or French-fry’ – wouldn’t we all?

Don't miss out on a kid-friendly discussion of healthy eating using animal role play and games. Every attendee will build a mini-greenhouse to take home to encourage vegetable sampling at home.
