James is a very picky eater, like who enjoys eating disgusting broccoli, smelly lasagna, repulsive milk, lumpy oatmeal, and slimy eggs? Since James is a very picky eater, his father tells him of the outlandish results if he does not eat his food. If James does not eat his smelly mushroom lasagna, the the troll who cooked will have to go back to work at the rat circus. The father tells James chooses the better options and eats the food he is given.
I would not have this book in my Kindergarten class because it is not age appropriate. However it would be a good book for older students because it has humor, it is relate-able, and it is an easy chapter book. This book could be used for independent reading or small group reading.
