Gregory, the Terrible Eater by Mitchell Sharmat

5.0

Fun flip of perspectives. Scott and I read this together for Cora’s 1st Grade classroom and they ate it up. It’s a good reminder of controling eating habits, too.

Mother Tongue Notes: The reading is a bit challenging for beginners because they can’t guess the story line. Also, the illustrations make some of the food difficult to identify. It’s easy to bring up cultural differences surrounding what we eat, while reading the book. There are several speakers, so it can be used easily in a shared reading setting.
