Yes, I was going for around that age frame. I don't know that many children, so it's hard for me to gauge how much difficulty different age groups would have with the language. I'm glad you think it could be used in discussions... I wanted the lessons about food and culture to be clear but not so overwhelming that the story wasn't enjoyable. I remember how much children's stories influenced me and I wanted to write something to make an impression on children concerning eating habits. I live in Boulder, where healthy living is so emphasized you feel like a pariah for buying a pizza. One of my friends is dealing with an eating disorder as well, and so I was hoping to make a a story that would promote moderation and understanding.
If I can find a scanner or someone with a scanner, I'll get my concept drawings up here, but that might take a while
Thanks so much for the comment!
