Synopsis

Ali-en loves to eat, especially his favourite soup called Pickled Smeggy. But when lunch takes too long, his mum has a clever idea. Why not take a quick trip on his rocket while he waits, as long as he’s home by noon!

Join Ali-en as he zooms back to Earth to visit his friends and discover the many foods people enjoy around the world. From spicy, sweet, crunchy, and soft to foods that look a little unusual, every stop on his journey is a delicious surprise. But with so much to taste, will Ali-en make it home in time?

What Is That You Eat? continues the gentle humour and rhyming rhythm of Dressed in Peace. It’s perfect for:

Encouraging children to try new foods and flavours

Sparking curiosity about different cultures and traditions

Supporting early reading and rhyme recognition

Adding fun to storytime, classrooms, and home learning

Vibrant, engaging, and full of heart, this second story in the Ali-en’s Adventures series shows that exploring food can be just as exciting as exploring space.

À propos de l'auteur

Born in East London, Ny M Jones is the middle child of a large family. In 2006, after finishing studies in Psychology, Media, English Literature and a desire to be a Dentist, a brief period of unemployment would find her securing her first role and the start of a lengthy career in Learning and Development. Despite the extreme career change, it is here that Ny developed an even greater passion for helping and influences others, and learnt the power within her ability to creatively adapt every day scenarios in order to contextualise information for different audiences. After the birth of her first child in 2009 she opted for a more "greener" setting to grow her family. With aspirations to still achieve Ny returned back to work when he was 1 year's old, securing herself a role as one of the youngest Training Managers covering over 50% of the London Boroughs. After reaching various levels of success in her role, a change in government funding would leave Ny transferring to a lesser role, subsequently followed by a range of unfulfilling jobs. On the 11th Feb 2016, a breakfast morning show had announced a competition for the "Next Big Children's Author" with a very attractive prize, at the time only requesting a manuscript. The journey to work that proceeded would see the birth of her first title "Dressed in Peace". However, after reviewing the terms and conditions, Ny was not willing to hand over the rights to her new baby. For almost a year she would contact and search illustrators, but none seemed to fit the tone of the book and those that could were far beyond her budget. For over a year the pages sat in the draw of her home study. In 2017 Ny welcomed the arrival of her second child. It was then she began to utilise the time that had become available to her to self-illustrate. 96 images later, a lot of Youtube videos, blog forums and sleepless nights. She is honoured to share this delightful new picture book series.
