At the Peters house, every child has a very particular favorite food. Peter wants milk, Lucy wants homemade lemonade, Jack wants applesauce, and each new sibling adds another special request. Mrs. Peters tries to keep up, but seven picky eaters can make mealtimes wildly complicated.
Mary Ann Hoberman’s lively rhymes make the family’s food troubles bounce along with comic energy, while Marla Frazee’s detailed illustrations fill the house with movement, mess, and affection. The Seven Silly Eaters is a funny picture book in verse about family life, picky eating, and the surprises that can come from too many special orders.
For ages 6 to 8, this is a playful read-aloud with delicious language, busy scenes to examine, and a warm look at how a big family can be chaotic, loving, and very silly all at once.
