But on her birthday, the children come together with a clever surprise that finally gives Mrs. Peters a well-deserved break and a meal everyone can enjoy. A charming and funny tale of family, food, and working together.

Peter wants only milk, Lucy won't settle for anything but homemade lemonade, and Jack is stuck on applesauce. Each new addition to the Peters household brings a new demand for a special meal.  What's a mother to do?

Even though Mrs. Peters picks, peels, strains, scrapes, poaches, fries, and kneads, the requests for special foods keep coming. It isn't until her birthday arrives that a present from her children solves the problem with a hilarious surprise that pleases everyone.

I’m getting ready to sell my Teaching Character set, and this is one I will be keeping. Such a sweet book, fun to read out loud, and engaging illustrations. It does highlight picky eaters, but doing so in a way that shows the burden it was causing to their mother and with a happy, compromise-finding ending.
