School Library Journal What do you dread eating the most? For one young boy, it's peas, but he's discovered a solution. "I closed my eyes tightly and sent out a wish That the peas would somehow disappear from my dish And something quite strange and mysterious occurred, As if somehow... somebody... somewhere had heard." He makes a bargain with a fiendishly funny monster who will eat the boy's peas in exchange for a soccer ball. But with each new encounter, the monster's demands escalate. Eventually, our hero faces a daunting decisioncan he conquer his loathing for peas, or will he lose his most prized possession? Danny Schnitzlein's Seuss-inspired verse combine with Matt Faulkner's uproariously detailed illustrations to create a clever story about how far we're willing to go to avoid the things we hate.
