The Boy Who Only Eats Chicken Nuggets and French Fries (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781964172576)

Remi is four years old, loves his family, and knows exactly what he likes to eat: chicken nuggets and French fries.

New foods can feel loud, confusing, and scary. They look different. They feel different. And for Remi, they can be overwhelming, especially when he doesn't yet have the words to explain how he feels. So when colorful foods appear on his plate, Remi does what many children do: he cries, pushes them away, and looks for the comfort of something safe and familiar.

The Boy Who Only Eats Chicken Nuggets and French Fries is a gentle, hopeful story about a nonverbal autistic child navigating sensory differences, food fears, and big emotions. With patience, encouragement, and love, Remi is given the time and support he needs to explore new foods at his own pace, leading to a moment that will surprise and delight readers of all ages.

Perfect for families, educators, and clinicians, this heartfelt picture book celebrates neurodiversity, small steps, and the power of understanding, reminding us that every child's voice matters, even before it is spoken.
