In Lionel Eats All By Himself, an overenthusiastic, impulsive lion tests his daily routine to their limit, cheekily enjoying the remarkable mess that results. Lionel is in his highchair and insists on eating all by himself. His veggies--well done, Lionel! His soup--nice one, Lionel! But each bite leaves more and more mess in the room, and on Lionel. Watch out for the big burp to finish off before Dad helps Lionel down from the table. Exuberant toddler lion Lionel learns about looking after his own body. His mischievous grin puts the reader instantly on his side, and the tolerant voice of his father provides an amused commentary--and incidentally a lovely model for how to parent. From the author of Encyclopedia of Grannies and My Pictures after the Storm (3 starred reviews).

From the author of My Pictures after the Storm, which received three starred reviews and which School Library Journal proclaimed "may be the funniest book of the year."
