    Sweet!

    A great little book that takes a different spin on eating one's vegetables. My daughter loves the candy illustrations!

    Eat your Candy!

    This is a completely delightful book. I was giggling to myself as I read it in the store, and had to by it. The children love reading it too, especially if you add silly voices. It is the best "Eat your Vegtables" book I've ever seen.

    Yum!

    I read this book after falling in love with Little Hoot. I wish there were more books as sweet as Little Pea and Little Hoot.

    Adorable

    The story is charming and Jen Corace's illustrations of the pea family are irresistible.
