Achilles is tired of eating bananas every day. What he really wants is to eat a child – but mum and dad aren’t being co-operative! What an idea! They try sausage and chocolate cake, but Achilles is not interested. Will Achilles finally be able to eat a child – or is he just a little too little!

‘An amusing story with wonderfully expressive illustrations.’ – The Independent
‘The appetizing mixture of domestic breakfast concerns and fierce child-eating monsters will leave children hungry for more.’ – Publishers Weekly

Reviews

Books for Keeps
Great fun and an obvious read aloud
The Independent
An amusing story with wonderfully expressive illustrations
Junior Resources
The familiar parental challenge of having a fussy eater is the focus of this funny tale...a hilarious take on fussy eating
Carousel
Bringing a welcome touch of dry Gallic humour to the sometimes-too-worthy picture book market... the rhythmic repetition of this naughty catchphrase is a joy to read aloud...An instant favourite!
Nursery World
Children will love it!
The Bookbag
I love books with a wicked glint in their eye...a deliciously naughty idea...Dorothee de Monfried's illustrations meld perfectly with the text. Both create a glorious world that you'll wish you were a part of.
