Suzy likes lots of things, but most of all she likes spaghetti. Soon she will eat nothing else, and her dad says 'she'll turn into a noodle'. But when cat, pig and dog see her bowls of spaghetti, they find all sorts of peculiar uses for the long strings. To thank her for the use of her spaghetti, they bring her gifts of fruit, and their lyrical descriptions of what the apples, cherries and bananas taste like are so winning that Suzy pronounces them 'almost' as good as spaghetti. Coplans cheerful, bright-eyed characters should prove encouraging to fussy eaters. Charming and subtle.
