I Really Want to Eat a Child
I Really Want to Eat a Child | Sylviane Donnio
4 posts | 9 read | 14 to read
Achilles is tired of eating bananas every day. What he really wants is to eat a child - but mum and dad aren't being co-operative! What an idea! They try sausage and chocolate cake, but Achilles is not interested. Will Achilles finally be able to eat a child - or is he just a little too little! 'An amusing story with wonderfully expressive illustrations.' - The Independent 'The appetizing mixture of domestic breakfast concerns and fierce child-eating monsters will leave children hungry for more.' - Publishers Weekly

I thought I‘d like this more than I actually did. The title is hilarious. The story itself is okay, and the twist is fun, but we probably won‘t read this one again.

Found this gem on a trip to San Fran in 2015 and have been loving it ever since. 😂🙌🏻

Perhaps a bit insensitive since I'm sure it's possible that it could happen in real life (though hopefully unlikely). Still, a fun story about a picky eater; parents will relate.

Lindy I LOVE this book! I've used it in so many library storytimes. Kids seem to like it more universally than adults. 8y
