No Peas for Nellie

Chris L Demarest
(Macmillan Children's Books)
978-0333510384, RRP £2.99, Paperback
5-8 Infant/Junior
Buy "No Peas for Nellie (Picturemacs)" on Amazon

Young Nellie hates peas; there are plenty of other things she'd much prefer to eat - a furry spider, a slimy salamander or a salted water buffalo, for instance. But the rule is - no peas, no dessert! A well-known situation is transformed into a highly diverting fantasy by Chris Demarest's splendidly amusing, larger than life illustrations. Appetising fare to share with a young audience or for beginners to devour for themselves.
