Linda Rigby is an Early Childhood Teacher, SOS-trained Feeding Therapist, and the creative heart behind Nourishing Little Eaters — a growing collection of picture books and playful resources designed to help families bring calm, curiosity, and connection to mealtimes.

With a background in education, child development, and nutrition, Linda combines evidence-based feeding strategies with the magic of storytelling. Her books — including Lulu’s Rainbow Feast, Ten Hungry Carrots, and Deano the Dinosaur — celebrate the sensory joy of food and help children explore fruits and vegetables in a pressure-free, engaging way.

Through rhyme, rhythm, and colourful illustrations, Linda’s stories gently guide children to touch, smell, and taste new foods at their own pace. Each book is thoughtfully crafted to reflect the developmental stages of early childhood learning — helping little readers grow food confidence, independence, and positive relationships with food.

When she’s not writing, Linda supports families through her feeding-therapy practice, offering online sessions to help children with picky, fussy or selective eating. She is passionate about helping parents replace mealtime stress with calm and connection, using playful exploration as the path to progress.

A lifelong learner, Linda draws inspiration from her own children, her work with families, and the simple joy of watching families and children discover what they can achieve. Her mission is simple: to nourish not only little appetites, but also hearts, minds, and family connections — one story, one bite, and one small win at a time.
