I have no affiliation with the author or publisher. Just picked it up in a bookshop.
The prose lilts along as perfectly as Judith Kerr's "The Tiger Who Came to Tea". Its (nearly) as funny for adults. My boys (ages 3 and 5) have requested it daily since it arrived in our house last week.
I'm not quite sure if it has the desired effect: the boys now swear they will never eat a tomato. But there's been a lot of smiling at bedtime.

"I have this little sister, Lola. She is small and very funny."
Charlie and Lola are two siblings who live in a flat in London with their Mum and Dad. Charlie is the older of the two, he is responsible and quite a clever chap. Lola is the younger sibling, she is small, funny and proves to be quite amusing. In this particular story Charlie uses his creativity/ingeuinity to get "picky eater" Lola to eat her dinner. The story is fun for both grown ups and children. Lauren Child is both the author and illustrator of this series. She combines mixed media for the illustrations, which are just fantastic! There are three books in the series " I Will Never Not Ever Eat a Tomato, I Am Too Absolutely Small For School and I Am Not Sleepy and I Will Not Go To Bed". Charlie and Lola are also the stars of their own television show on Playhouse Disney weekdays. Charlie and Lola are the best British import since Harry Potter!

I stumbled across "I Will Not Ever Never Eat a Tomato" at the bookstore one day and fell in love with the art work of Lauren Child. But the stories are absoulutely fabulous as well. My three year old daughter loves them. And now they have their own 15 minute tv show on Disney. They are truly cute books!
