Franky the Finicky Flamingo

Franky the Finicky Flamingo was inspired by my own childs picky eating when she was a youngster. Both my husband and I had been picky eaters so we understood but we still tried to help her expand her list of agreeable foods. Often when she spent the night at a friends house they would serve something different and she would come home excited to eat a new food. Thank goodness for friends! In this story Franky is a finicky eater or so it seems. He tries food that the other birds like to eat but nothing appeals to him. Finally a friend helps him discover the food that is right for him. The message is about accepting our finickiness while also understanding our need for the right (aka healthy) foods. A fun rhyming picture book with beautiful pictures tells the tale that children will enjoy hearing and parents will enjoy reading again and again.
