Jellybeans Morning, Noon and Night is about two brothers who share a love of jellybeans! No matter what flavor, those boys just love jellybeans-all of them. If they had it their way, they would eat jellybeans for breakfast, jellybeans for lunch, and jellybeans for dinner. And that's exactly what they plan to do! It is a brilliant plan, isn't it? Written by Maggie Pajak and illustrated by Marni Backer, Jellybeans Morning Noon & Night is a delicious story filled with a sweet lesson of moderation and a savory message to parents to let your kids (sometimes) figure things out on their own. But more importantly, it is sprinkled with a few giggle-filled moments that both you and your kids will enjoy.
