Munchpie Morgan
Step into the enchanting world of Munchpie Morgan, a heartwarming children's book inspired by a giggle-filled car ride with Morgan and Merry, to a birthday party when Morgan was just 3 years old. As her grandmother Merry admired Morgan's adorable dimpled elbow, she playfully began "pretend munching," exclaiming, "Yummy, yummy! I think I'll have some Elbow Macaroni!" Morgan's laughter filled the air, and the delightful game of pretend unfolded.
​
With playful curiosity, Merry explored new "menu options"; a "Head of lettuce," "ears of corn", and cherry toma"toes" to name a few. Learning the body parts became a delightful treat! And thus, Munchpie Morgan came to life as a celebration of imagination captivating the essence of "you are what you eat".
Moved by the magic of that cherished moment, Merry thought if it could make one child think so hard and laugh so much, it was something they should share with the world.
Join Munchpie Morgan on an adventure of giggling imagination and learning through fun.
