"For a storytime feast, serve up this funny book with Lauren Child's I Will Never Not Ever Eat a Tomato and Amy Krouse Rosenthal's Little Pea." --School Library Journal
"This will have a wide audience of giggling, understanding eaters." --BCCB "The illustrations have a simple look that goes with the pared-down text, the perspectives and dramatic effect reminiscent of Mo Willems's Pigeon books." --Kirkus ReviewsAbout the Author
