Food artists Freymann and Elffers unleash the latent personalities of fruits and vegetables by carving faces on them, then using their expressive produce to illustrate different emotions. Paired with a catchy, minimal rhyming text, their flashy color photographs of jealous tomatoes, angry oranges, proud bell peppers, and the like add zest to the standard concept book theme.
