Night of the Veggie Monster by George McClements

McClements, George. Night of the Veggie Monster. New York: Bloomsbury, 2008. 32p.  

In this humorous book, a boy describes in detail what happens to him when he is forced to eat peas for dinner. He later realizes that peas aren't so bad after all, but broccoli poses a real threat! 

Kids will love the colorful, unique mixed media illustrations and will have fun reading the parents' speech bubbles. This is a wonderful book for teaching young writers how to describe a small moment with vivid details.
