children's book
Lisbon tummy was making all kinds of racket.Mom assured her dinner was almost ready/Mom suggested Lisbon go outside & play & she would call her when it was ready.A bird up in the tree offered her something to eat.The black bug was not her thing.Cupcake (cat) dove into a bush & offered Lisbon a mouse.Rocky the neighbor’s dog offered to catch Lisbon a hedgehog.Better yet brown crunchy nuggets from the dog bowl.She met Jordan (BMF) on the way home. What did he suggest?I did not receive any type of compensation for reading & reviewing this book. While I receive free books from publishers & authors, I am under no obligation to write a positive review. Only an honest one.A very awesome book cover, great colored pictures & proper font & writing style. A very well written children’s adventure story book. It was very easy for me to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment. There were no grammar/typo errors, nor any repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a great set of unique characters to keep track of. This could also make another great children’s adventure movie, an animated cartoon, or better yet a mini TV series. There is no doubt in my mind this is a very easy rating of 5 stars.Thank you for the free author; White Star Press; 1 edition; BookSends; Amazon Digital Services LLC.; bookTony Parsons MSW (Washburn)

Cute Story, Charming Ilustrations!
I Don’t Want to Eat Bugs is a cute book about a little girl, named Lisbon, who is so hungry she doesn’t want to wait for dinner.Lisbon goes on a fun adventure looking for food when she encounters several animals that offer to share their yummy food, except yuck, it is not yummy! The animals offer a wide variety of different foods they like, from bugs to dog food, but, of course, Lisbon isn’t interested!The story is an effective way for children to learn about animals’ food and an appreciation for their own food. The illustrations are bright and colorful, and they are creative enough to capture a child’s imagination. The characters are charming and fit the story perfectly, too. I love her little stuffed frog!One very subtle lesson is the importance of sharing, even if it is bugs!!I Don’t Want to Eat Bugs is a great book to read to young children who are not yet able to read and also for those who have learned or are learning to read.This entertaining book is currently free on Amazon. (Not an affiliate.) As always, be sure to check the price before purchasing, in case there are changes in pricing.

Cute and funny Children's Book
This is a children's book that I read to my twin boys. I have to say they found this book so funny. I loved that it pull my boys into the story. They kept saying "No, do eat that". I found the story cute and funny. Also, it shows kids that different things eats different things. I also found the pictures really cute. If you are looking for a cute and funny story to read to your kids then this is the book for you. I also think it is a great book to read during spring because you can look for birds eating bugs after reading this book.

~~Illustrations are excellent...as is the text~~
The author states that this book is for ages 2 to 7 and grades P to 3.The first thing I noticed was how excellent the illustrations are throughout this book. I love it when they are bright and colorful as I think they help to hold the attention of the little ones.In addition to the illustrations, Lisbon, the little girl, is hungry. Not time for the meal at her home so she goes in search of food. Little did she realize when she started her trek, but although the animals tried....she really didn't like their offerings! Bugs, a mouse, and some dog good from Rocky (looks like my dog...) .At least the animals were trying to share although Lisbon did not like their offerings... She finally went home and dinner was ready....chicken, rice, salad and even some ice cream for dessert.At the end of the book there is an activity page for the little ones. Always like those for the children as they get to go back through the book and see if they are able to find the items.Most highly recommended.

So Fun
Oh my what a cute and fun book to read. I loved the art work from Tim Petersen and the story that was so short but so fun by Rachel Branton it is for young and old alike. It will bring you back to the days when you played outside and came across all kinds of bugs, which if like me was dared to eat one or two...knowing that hungry feeling as a kid waiting to be called for dinner was on point... I recommend this to ALL so fun to enjoy with your kids, grandkids and adults as well... I have with my grandson... A book to read and reread from now on….. Gina Clabo (go get this I just got book two)….

A really funny story with a good lesson about what to eat
Rachel Branton's book and Tim Petersen's illustrations are full of fun. Children will like them. In the book, the young girl Lisbon is very hungry. A bird suggested she eat a bug, a cat offered a mouse, a dog dog food. She rejected them all. Then she saw a boy with ice cream and wanted some. What would her mom say? Besides a fun story with a lesson about proper eating, there is a fun game at the end of the book..

Enjoyable!
This book was interesting. The illustrations were done well. My 3 year old found it entertaining. She commented on the pictures and about what it would be like to eat these different things that the girl was offered to eat. I even enjoyed it. I also enjoyed the fact that there were no grammar issues and it displays well on my paper white. The words are big enough and clear enough and has excellent contrast with the background, which is very important. I read it to my daughter on the pc, so she could see the illustrations in color. She wanted me to read it again. I would recommend this book.

Refreshing.....
It's refreshing and a good read before bedtime. I read it to my son and he loved it. He is a foodie and it gave him a nice idea of how different people like different kinds of food. A definite read for young kids.

Bof
Lisbonne est une petite fille qui a faim. Elle rencontre des animaux qui lui conseillent de manger différentes nourritures. Un peu cousu de fils blancs.

A sweet story, beautifully illustrated, that gave big ice cream cravings!
This children's book, beautifully illustrated by Tim Petersen, is the first book in the Lisbon's Misadventures series. A sweet and funny story, the pictures really enhance it. And I loved the hide and seek game at the end too. Highly recommended reading for young readers.. though be prepared for ice cream cravings!
