No More Peas by Erika Meza
Oliver only wants to eat chips and pizza for dinner. So when Dad keeps dishing up vegetables, Oliver's cheeks turn red and he shouts: 'NO MORE PEAS!' Will Oliver ever give vegetables a chance? A story about growing vegetables, eating healthily and being brave enough to try new things.
"No More Peas comes packed with knockabout humour and jokes guaranteed to keep little ones entertained, and fascinating facts about growing and preparing different types of vegetablesWith Meza's equally colourful array of illustrations to tempt reluctant eaters, this is the perfect picture book to sow the seeds of a healthy diet... and a more adventurous palate!" * Pam Norfolk, Lancashire Post *
"In this laugh-out-loud story, Oliver has absolutely no intention of eating vegetables, something many parents and grown-ups have come across. The book introduces a wide variety of vegetables throughout and includes additional backmatter with information about the importance of eating five-a-day as part of a healthy balanced diet." * Booktrust *
"There is also lots to talk about on every page, from how vegetables are grown from seeds, to who likes which vegetable best and ultimately about being brave enough to try new things, that might not actually be as bad as you think. A wonderful, light-hearted and funny picture book to encourage fussy eaters to eat more vegetables, whilst having fun. 4 stars" * Books for Keeps *
