How many of you have kids? If you raised your hand or nodded, you likely know the struggle of getting kids to eat. While I don’t have kids myself, I grew up with children in our family, not to mention my husband having younger siblings when we were in high school. With many of my friends going through this struggle as well, I couldn’t help but laugh when I read Go the F**k to Sleep. When I heard that Adam Mansbach had a new book, Seriously, You have to Eat, I knew I had to check it out!

Seriously, You Have to Eat: Overall
Honestly, my husband and I thought this book was funny, even though we don’t have kids. Anyone that has ever dealt with children will find this book absolutely hilarious. The book goes through a parent’s perspective on kids refusing to eat, including them turning down their favorite food and refusing to eat what is available for them. As a sequel to Go the F**k to Sleep, parents will easily get a kick out of this book and the beautiful illustrations. Best of all, since this book is designed for kids and parents, you can sit and read the book with your kids, getting a big of a laugh out of this kid friendly version of You Have to F**king Eat.

This sounds like a cute book and thank you for sharing with us. I am sure that most parents would love it for their kids.
I would love this book for my oldest grandson who is reading on his own now and loves Madagascar.
Sounds like a great book. I was a picky eater as a kid and this may have helped me… my daughter is more open minded fortunately.
My husband better not see this. He’d probably laugh and say he has to get this and read it to me. He’s always trying to get me to eat, it’s absurd!

I don’t have kids, but I babysit my niece & nephews a lot. I would’ve titled it: Seriously, You Have To Eat …something besides cookies & candy!
I need to read this book I am helping my son raise his two young children and we struggle with this often. Thank you so much for sharing
No kids myself but I’ve seen how hard it is to get kids to eat. Looks like a fun book.
Like you I do not have any children of my own but growing up was always the go to babysitter, also I have 12 nephew and nieces ranging from the age of 2 to late 20’s. And yes its a strugge to get the little ones to eat something that is not sweet. Sounds like this will be a great read for anyone who has been around children.
Oh how fun– I think any one that has children go through this a time or two– my worst were the 1st and 3rd girl oh my gosh– they would eat a a bite and say ” I am so full it hurts. THank goodness they are wonderful cooks, and eat ewll now. THanks I need to find this to read for me.
My Granddaughter is starting to become a very picky eater. We have to play the 3, 4, 5 more bites game. She tries to outsmart us by only putting a little bit on the fork.
I saw this at the book store – looks like a great Christmas gift for any parent LOL.
I’ll bet this book would be a big help to a lot of parents. I completely understand how people feel they need to keep their cool, and a sense of humor, when encountering difficult situations with their kids!
Hahaha, sounds really interesting!
I want to get a copy of this for our school’s library. The amount of food wasted each day in our cafeteria is sad. This may help kids make better choices.
