Description

Jasper McFlea will simply not eat his tea, no matter how hard everyone tries to make him! Jasper and his sister, Ginger, are twins with wildly different tastes when it comes to food. While Ginger has a hearty appetite and eats almost everything, her brother Jasper refuses to eat anything except pasta. Jasper is also a budding cricketer, and as the final match of the season gets closer, Ginger makes a dire prediction about Jasper's sporting future if he doesn't change his culinary ways.. As well as being a fantastically entertaining read-out-loud story, Jasper McFlea Will Not Eat His Tea will resonate with a vast audience of children and their carers, and will be useful for anyone who deals with this difficult and sensitive issue.
