New Children’s Book by Artist Ruby Roth Introduces Veganism and Vegetarianism to Early Readers

Not sure how to explain to your child why you choose not to eat meat? Then be sure to check this new release by L.A.-based artist Ruby Roth. That’s Why We Don’t Eat Animals is a groundbreaking new children’s book that uses colorful illustrations to introduce the basic concepts behind veganism and vegetarianism to early readers (ages six to ten). Roth shows animals in both their natural state—rooting around, eating, cuddling, grooming one another, generally being adorable—and in the terrible conditions of the factory farm. The result is a touching, entertaining (and not too frightening) book that is perfect for parents who want to inform their children of this increasingly important subject.

Here is a sneak peak at a few of the spreads from That’s Why We Don’t Eat Animals. Ruby has also put together a brief video introducing the work, included below. For more information on the title, check out wedonteatanimals.com.
