A book for picky eaters!
Carly is what her parents call a “very picky eater.” She would only eat from a short list of foods, all of which are carbs. Her absolute favorite is french fries! Her best friend is having a birthday sleepover. When Carly discovers nothing to eat from her food list at the party, she begins to panic. So many strange foods, and not a french fry or buttered noodle in sight! Will Carly go hungry?
