Great story
I write enjoyed this story, as did my children. It's cute. Everyone wants Lisbon to try their favorite foods. Turns out she really likes her favorites, not the bird's, cat's, or dog's. The illustrations in this book are fantastic as well.

Cute book. The illustrations were interesting and the story was humorous. Good intro into what various animals eat and personal preferences.

Very nice. Light and pleasant.
Sadly my kid still wasn't convinced he might like salad after the book races it, but he did enjoy the story. The art was solid, and the characters all behaved well, which is especially nice in a book about people not eating what other animals eat.

Cute!
This is a cute children's story following a girl as she tries to get rid of her hungry tummy while her mom cooks dinner. Three year old approved!

Nice story
This was the perfect story to read for my daughter tonight- she asked to read it again in the future and I take that as a good sign.

I Don't Want to Eat Bugs is absolutely adorable!
The art style in this book is more cartoon-y than "artsy", but it stands out really well! That gives it a unique feature that really stands out, in my opinion. While that may turn some readers away, the details in this book were fantastic! Just on the first page - the stuffed animals were breathtaking and almost real (in a cartoon sense). I really liked the style!
There is NOT a rhyming scheme, which is a really nice change! This story is just a story! It let's the words flow whatever way the author desired, instead of trying to stick to a rhyming scheme.
I thought the adventure Lisbon (our main character) goes on is really cute. The bird, cat and dog were all cute companions for Lisbon to learn from. The lesson about eating the food that is made for you (and not just random bugs and mice... do kids do that?) was something I haven't seen for a long time!
The final pages where it has a little activity was also an incredible touch! I always liked having activities in the book as a kid to make the book more fun, so seeing the activity page warms my heart. The activity itself is finding certain items in the storybook, if anyone is curious.
I think this book is adorable! I might have pushed the idea or theme behind the book a little more, but it was still fun and cute!
Four out of five stars!

Clever and well written.
I thought this was a cute book. It has the perfect flow for beginner to mid way readers. I love the idea behind her adventure. The interaction with the characters and their meal choices is a clever way of teaching kids about different meals for humans and animals a like. I really enjoyed the illustrations. They are a bit quirky but seriously cute as well as eye catching . make sire you go to the end where the author challenges the reader to go back and find certain Illustrated items in a search. Loved that! Super cute book.

Love rhis
I read this to my little ones (1&4) and they loved it! They found the thought of eating what the animals suggested both hilarious and gross. They also loved the idea of ice cream! I would recommend this book to any mama with picky eaters.
