Archie's Different Dinner: A Storybook for kids with ARFID

Is mealtime a battleground? Your child is not wrong. They are simply different-and different is okay.

Archie's Different Dinner is a gentle, beautifully illustrated picture book created to support children with ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder) and sensory-based eating differences.

Inspired by the author's real-life journey with her son, this story helps children feel deeply understood and empowers parents, teachers, and schools to learn what ARFID truly is.

Follow seven-year-old Archie as he navigates the world with his specific dietary needs. Readers will walk alongside him as he manages:

• Finding and keeping his safe foods.
• The stress of eating in front of others.
• Sensory overwhelm during holidays and events.
• The reality of school lunches and social situations.
• The certainty that forcing food never works.
