Pea & Carrot. The Hungry Book: An Inside Feeling - Martin King

Help little ones notice and understand hungry feelings as they appear throughout the day.

In this gentle Pea and Carrot story for ages 2 to 5, a happy day of bouncing and laughter slowly changes as something new begins to appear. A quiet grumble, a slower step, and a feeling that is not quite easy to name. With Carrot beside him, Pea begins to recognise what his body is trying to tell him.

With soft, calming illustrations and simple, thoughtful language, this story stays close to that feeling, giving children and the grown-ups they love space to notice it together and begin to put that feeling into words.

A quiet story to return to before mealtimes or during low-energy moments, helping children recognise and talk about what it feels like to be hungry.

Part of the Pea and Carrot series. Little stories for big feelings.
