Easy Vegan Book for Children

That’s Why We Don’t Eat Animals: A Book About Vegans, Vegetarians, and All Living Things (Hardcover) by Ruby Roth

Ms. Roth’s books will be released on May 26, 2009, but it is worthy of an early pre-purchase peek. Ms. Roth was teaching art in an elementary school when she was kept busy answering questions posed to her by her curious students about her veganism.  To help answer their many questions as well as to help other children understand this lifestyle choice, Ms. Roth developed her soon-to-be-published book.   Her book discusses the thats-why-we-dont-eat-animalsemotional lives of animals, the conditions under which animals must live when they are reduced to commodities in factory farming, the connection between what we eat and how the planet fares, and the interconnectedness of life on our planet.   Endorsements by Ingrid Newkirk, Ed Begley, Jr., Jane Goodall and others grace the back cover.  The illustrations have also been created by Ms. Roth; they do not gloss over the serious subject, but they do offer a beautiful and safe way to discuss the subject with young children.
