Disgusting Dinner features Chum the ghoul preparing a gloriously gross dinner for all of his best buds, including Boolynn who sports glasses and Ember who is shown wearing both a hearing aid and a cochlear implant processor. With a surprise ending, the book is great for all young readers and can serve as a spring board to talk about trying new foods, not yucking someone else’s yum. It represents children with devices having fun times with friends. This story time could even lead to a small lesson in sign language!.
