Lionel Eats All By Himself

Description

A positive and practical board book that encourages children to love food as much as you! Featuring a mischievous little lion called Lionel. In this pithy board book series, an overenthusiastic, impulsive lion tests his daily routines to their limit-in Lionel Eats All By Himself, Lionel does just that, 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! Each bite leaves more and more mess in the room, and on Lionel. Watch out for Lionel's final proud burp to finish, before Dad helps him down from the table. Cheeky 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 adult helper provides an amused commentary. Lionel's increasingly funny efforts to eat his meal by himself have young children laughing out loud at his funny facial expressions. Perfect for toddlers who are learning to eat finger foods or spoon feed themselves or as a tool to introduce solid foods or baby led weaning. This sturdy board book is just right for little hands making it ideal to read with a child while they are in their highchair or at the table. The Lionel series introduces developmental milestones with humor, mischief and gentle guidance. Series includes Lionel Poops. "Resistance is futile."
