Picky Eater by Michael Gordon
Cute children's colorful rhyming story about Franklin and he will not under any circumstances eat fruits or vegetables.
He has many reasons why he doesn't like them although he's never tasted them. Mom to the rescue as she makes a pie for Franklin
and they all surprised.
Not able to enlarge the words so was a bit difficult to read them holding a magnifying glass.
About the author is included at the end along with other works by the author.
Free review copy from the author and this is my honest opinion.

Franklin was a picky eater. He wouldn’t even try vegetables or fruits. He decided he hated them without even trying them. Mom finds a way to get Franklin to try the vegetables without knowing he did. Franklin discovered he like them.

This is a children's book about a hard subject. Eating fruits and vegetables are good for you. In this book with the easy to understand words, it helps kids understand they should try new things they might just like it. I borrowed this book from Amazon library for free. You can too.
Franklin is a very good son. He cleans his room when told. He goes to bed when it's tme. He will not eat his fruit and vegetables. It makes him cry. His mom doesn't t get mad. How does she fix this problem? Does Franklin learn to try new things?
