Format:Board book
i LOVE this book and so do my children! it tells a simple story about why you should eat vegetables! and what happens if you don't! it gets my kids guessing that if they don't carry on eating greens then who knows what would fall off!

Format:Board book
I work in a preschool and am looking for some new books for the children. When i first started to read this i thought "Oh my god i can't buy this". Luckily i continued to read it and it's fantastic. I know the children will find it hilarious and hopefully it will encourage them to eat their veg, after all that's what the story is all about. I'd definitely recomend it.

Format:Board book
I have become a big fan of Elena Odriozola's illustrations from this book and her two other subsequent ones. The only reason that I don't endlessly gaze at her drawings until my daughter forces me to turn the page, is that they are coupled with terrific verse. The text scans and flows on the subject of forcing your children to eat well. I think it is a fantastic idea showing a girl falling apart because she has not eaten her greens. Because effectively, that is what will ultimately happen to you if you eat poorly (ignore recent studies please children).

My son was given this for his 1st birthday by his Aunt and we are still enjoying it! A modern classic. How can this ever go out of print? All children need a copy! Read more

Crazy story to get children to eat more veg!
