Eat Your Peas

(4) PS Illustrated by Nick Sharratt. Daisy hates peas, so her mom tries to bribe her into eating them. But no matter how elaborate the bribes become, Daisy won't be swayed and eventually triumphs in this battle of wills. Bold cartoon illustrations enhance the tension: Daisy grows larger and angrier while her mother grows smaller and more desperate. Though the resolution is too easy, the story is funny.
