A young boy turns up his nose at various foods because they are "too fruity," "too fishy," "too pickley," and so on. A fun book for teaching adjectives or sharing likes/dislikes.

Not a favorite of mine but my 2 yo daughter can't get enough of the illustrations.

Love it! Too cute. Definitely a great read for picky eaters out there with a surprisingly great ending.

I know I'm in the minority here, but this just didn't work for either of us. As the adult, I found the boy's expressions entertaining, and the hamster very cute, but was confused by the end, even going back to make sure I hadn't skipped a page which explained what the boy had eaten. The child wasn't impressed either. I'm only giving it 2 stars because of the hamster!

Jean Reidy's picture books are fresh and funny, putting a new spin on a child's eye view.

Very cute rhyming book reminiscent of "Old Hat, New Hat". I'd have given it 5 stars, but I got to the end and said, "Huh? What exactly did he eat?"

You don't find out what the kid is willing to eat!
