Summary
From the bestselling author of Go the **** to Sleep and healthy eating advocate Camila Alves McConaughey comes a whimsical role reversal in which picky eater parents are confronted by their three kids， with hilarious results
These three kids are determined to get their parents to put down the ice cream， cake， and chicken fried steak to just try one bite of healthy whole foods。 But it's harder than it looks when these over-the-top gagging， picky parents refuse to give things like broccoli and kale a chance。 Kids will love the jaunty rhyme that's begging to be read aloud and the opportunity to be way smarter--and healthier--than their parents。

It was an interesting book。 The book had a wonderful way of explaining why parents （or should i say children） need to try new things to eat。

I was looking forward to this as a mom of a picky eater。 But it just didn't work for me。 The rhyme scheme was off and felt forced and hard to read。 The story was lacking the humor I was expecting and the overall package was just meh。 The illustrations were cute， but the text was lacking and wasn't great at getting the point across at trying new foods。 It also plays into the good food/bad foods narrative。 I was looking forward to this as a mom of a picky eater。 But it just didn't work for me。 The rhyme scheme was off and felt forced and hard to read。 The story was lacking the humor I was expecting and the overall package was just meh。 The illustrations were cute， but the text was lacking and wasn't great at getting the point across at trying new foods。 It also plays into the good food/bad foods narrative。 。。。more

Surprisingly， the rhyme scheme isn't as crisp as Mansbach's other works。 I guess perfectly incorporating an f bomb into a parody of a children's picture book is more personally inspiring？ Still， it's a good picky eater text， and as a bonus， I can actually read/recommend it without reservations to children！ Surprisingly， the rhyme scheme isn't as crisp as Mansbach's other works。 I guess perfectly incorporating an f bomb into a parody of a children's picture book is more personally inspiring？ Still， it's a good picky eater text， and as a bonus， I can actually read/recommend it without reservations to children！ 。。。more

This is great， it’s reversing the picky eater kids to picky eater parents。 My kids and I read this together and it was a hoot。 The rhyming words were fun to read and the pictures are bright and colorful。

This rhyming picture book is a role reversal where the parents are picky eaters who are confronted by their three kids。 The kids want their parents to stop eating junk and try one bite of healthy foods。 The book moves away from fast foods and moving toward whole foods。I loved how the authors referred to fast foods as "slow foods。" This book has many reminders of how bad sugar can be。 We can relate to this book as parents because we all have struggled with "picky" eaters who have a hard time eati This rhyming picture book is a role reversal where the parents are picky eaters who are confronted by their three kids。 The kids want their parents to stop eating junk and try one bite of healthy foods。 The book moves away from fast foods and moving toward whole foods。I loved how the authors referred to fast foods as "slow foods。" This book has many reminders of how bad sugar can be。 We can relate to this book as parents because we all have struggled with "picky" eaters who have a hard time eating anything healthy。To listen to my interview with the author， go to my podcast at:https://zibbyowens。com/transcript/ada。。。 。。。more

The rolls are reversed。 Children try to get the parents to try just one bite of healthy foods。 A great way to show how children can be an influence to their parents too。

Very bothered by the wording in this book… yikes。 But Mike Boldt’s illustrations are awesome， per the usual！

stop teaching kids that there are "bad" foods。 while I get the sentiment behind the story - referring to soda as industrial waste and basically bullying over having chips/ice cream creates a narrative that you can't be healthy when you eat those foods （which - gasp - isn't true）。 stop teaching kids that there are "bad" foods。 while I get the sentiment behind the story - referring to soda as industrial waste and basically bullying over having chips/ice cream creates a narrative that you can't be healthy when you eat those foods （which - gasp - isn't true）。 。。。more
