In this inspiring episode ofAt This Table, host Shelly Brown welcomes children’s book author Nora Carman to discuss her delightful book,Tiger in My Tummy. This imaginative, rhyming story transforms the everyday experience of skipping breakfast into a playful adventure while also raising awareness for childhood hunger.

Beyond the book’s whimsical storytelling and engaging illustrations, Tiger in My Tummy is making a real impact by supporting Kids Around the World, a nonprofit organization dedicated to fighting childhood hunger. Join us for a heartwarming conversation about creativity, faith, and the power of using storytelling to make a difference.

Episode Highlights:

• The Story Behind Tiger in My Tummy: Inspired by her own son’s experience of skipping meals in excitement, Nora turned a real-life moment into a charming story about a hungry tiger making its presence known. This book not only entertains but also gently teaches the importance of eating well.
• The Power of Illustrations: Nora’s son-in-law, a talented artist, beautifully illustratedTiger in My Tummy. She recounts how they collaborated to ensure the tiger was fun and friendly rather than frightening, capturing the imagination of young readers.
• Partnering with Kids Around the World: A divine encounter led Nora to connect withKids Around the World, an organization that provides meals for children facing food insecurity. She celebrated her book launch with a meal-packing event that provided over 5,000 meals and later traveled to the Dominican Republic to distribute meals firsthand.
• The Publishing Experience with Redemption Press: From expert editing to a supportive, faith-based publishing process, Nora expresses gratitude for the team at Redemption Press, who walked alongside her through each step of bringingTiger in My Tummy to life.
