Hungry Monkey

A Food-Loving Father’s Quest to Raise an Adventurous Eater

Book club guide

Has your book club read Hungry Monkey? Why not? Is it because there’s no reader’s guide? Well, now there is:

Hungry Monkey reader’s guide

I’d like to add a couple of questions:

  1. In Hungry Monkey, the author uses the word “awesome” a lot. What word or phrase do you overuse? Could you enlist a friend to punch you in the arm every time you say it?

  2. Would you buy a special edition hardcover of Hungry Monkey, with page edges made ragged from being encrusted with drool from babies at the Houghton Mifflin nursery? How much you would pay for it? $100? Would this punch in the arm change your mind?

  3. Since the publication of the book, Takeru Kobayashi has lost his hot dog eating crown to an oversized American guy. What’s up with that?
