THE SEVEN SILLY EATERS
By: Mary Ann Hoberman
Illustrated by: Marla Frazee

...And from that day to this, 'tis said,
The Peters family all is fed
A single simple meal-just one-
A meal that's good for everyone,
A meal on which they all agree,
Made form their secret recipe.

They all take turns in mixing it.
They all take turns in fixing it.
It's thick to beat and quick to bake-
It's fine to eat and fun to make-
A year rolled by.
The children grew.
"They really are a spledid crew,"
Sighed Mrs. Peters, pinning pins
And diapering her brand-new twins:
Little sisters, quick and smart,
Impossible to tell apart;
But Flo liked poached eggs, Fran liked fried.
If she mixed them up, they cried.

Tired to the very bone,
Mrs. Peters groaned a groan.
She'd take the eggs down from the shelf
And whisper weakly to herself,
"What persnickety young eaters
Are all my seven little Peters."
