When Wendy Lost Her Appetite

Beschreibung

Wendy loves spaghetti and meatballs, and she can't resist chocolate ice cream (especially with sprinkles). But one evening, just as she's about to enjoy her favorite meal, she is suddenly no longer hungry. When her mom mentions that she must have lost her appetite, Wendy enlists the help of her doll, Mildred, to help her find it. But first, she has to figure out what an appetite is! Using her vibrant imagination, Wendy envisions what an appetite might look like and begins her quest to track hers down. Readers will join Wendy and Mildred as they explore every corner of the house, from the laundry room to under the car and even the sandbox! But even after their long quest, they can't seem to find it anywhere. Luckily, Wendy has one more idea: she creates a "lost" poster! Feeling sure that this will lead them to Wendy's appetite, she and Mildred wait and wait and wait. Finally, they head to the pantry, where Wendy's stomach starts to grumble. Has she finally found her appetite after all? Author Carly Mottinger's playful characters and engaging prose will spark curiosity for readers, and Kevin Meier's vivid illustrations bring the story to life. It's a reminder to persevere through challenges, be patient, and savor the journey, and readers will be left hungry for more.
