Danny Schnitzlein: The Monster Who Ate My Peas, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

This hilarious picture book from author Danny Schnitzlein will have little pea-phobes, picky eaters, and monster lovers begging for repeated reads.

What do you dread eating the most? For one young boy, it's peas, but he's discovered a solution.

"I closed my eyes tightly and sent out a wish
That the peas would somehow disappear from my dish
And something quite strange and mysterious occurred,
As if somehow... somebody... somewhere had heard."

He makes a bargain with a fiendishly funny monster who will eat the boy's peas in exchange for a soccer ball. But with each new encounter, the monster's demands escalate. Eventually, our hero faces a daunting decision?can he conquer his loathing for peas, or will he lose his most prized possession?

Danny Schnitzlein's Seuss-inspired verse combine with Matt Faulkner's uproariously detailed illustrations to create a clever story about how far we're willing to go to avoid the things we hate.
