Splat!

Discover our hilarious picture book about healthy eating and read the true story of how the smoothie was invented.

An army of not-so-innocent children, two towns that don’t give a fig for each other and one massive food fight … the rest is culinary history.

The Fruitopians only eat fruit, in Vegtaville they’re mad about greens. But their differences are resolved through the power of healthy eating (and throwing food at each other).

‘Fear not my King!’ cried out the Queen.
‘I’ll get them with my aubergine!’
Then from every nook and cranny,
Raced boy and girl, grandpa, granny!
Gunk explosions by the squillion,
Bombs of blue, green and vermillion.

From the printed picture book, to animated stories, online games and merchandise, SPLAT! will engage children and parents alike. Watch this space leading up to our launch of this funny children’s rhyming book about nutrition!
