Age range 5 to 9Lola doesn' t like her dinner, so she sneaks other food. . . with hilarious results!Lola knows she' s supposed to eat shrimp. After all, the pigment from shrimp will turn her gray-white feathers into that familiar brilliant pink. But Lola finds shrimp just plain yucky. So when her parents aren' t looking, she goes in search of something. . . different. As Lola tries new foods, her feathers turn all sorts of wild colours, much to her parents' horror! Will they ever be able to convince her to just eat her shrimp? Fussy Flamingo is a sweet and silly picture book that will teach young readers to be more open-minded about food!'
