The idea behind Cute Food was a very simple one. I had been watching Christina sculpt these adorable little anthropomorphic pieces of food and had been making these terribly corny food puns when looking at them. We thought that this was a very silly yet fun idea and why not make a whole book out of it. We did not always want to feel restrained to tackle content matter in our book that only contained moral tales or other heavy material. Sometimes we just wanted to create books that would make the reader chuckle.
Christina created all of the art for the book and then I did a lot of trial and error in writing the puns. We find at readings that even if the audience is too young to understand all of the puns, they find it silly enough to tickle their funny bones anyways.
Take a look at the video below to see us chatting more about the book.
