A sibling’s imaginative approach to a fussy eater

Lola refuses a range of foods, with tomatoes especially high on her no-thank-you list. Her brother Charlie gives familiar dishes fanciful new identities, turning carrots into “orange twiglets from Jupiter” and mashed potatoes into “cloud fluff” from Mount Fuji. Food and sibling interaction shape this humorous picture-book story, while Lola’s changing response to what is on her plate gives its premise a playful twist.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • A good match for children ages 4–8, the listed target audience.
  • Suitable for families seeking a humorous story about food reluctance and siblings.
  • May interest young readers who enjoy imaginative names for everyday things.

Book overview

"Youngsters will never -- not ever -- pass up a second helping." -- Publishers Weekly

Lola is a fussy eater. A very fussy eater. She won't eat her carrots (until her brother Charlie reveals that they're orange twiglets from Jupiter). She won't eat her mashed potatoes (until Charlie explains that they're cloud fluff from the pointiest peak of Mount Fuji). There are many things Lola won't eat, including -- and especially --tomatoes. Or will she? Two endearing siblings star in a witty story about the triumph of imagination over proclivity.
