This little lion has a definite bit of flair. I mean, look at the expressions on this guy. Resistance is futile.
Lionel Eats All By Himself
In this pithy board book series, an overenthusiastic, impulsive lion tests his daily routines to their limit—in Lionel Eats All By Himself, Lionel does just that, cheekily enjoying the remarkable mess that results.
Lionel is in his highchair and insists on eating all by himself. His veggies—well done, Lionel! His soup—nice one, Lionel! But each bite leaves more and more mess in the room, and on Lionel. Watch out for the big burp to finish off before Dad helps Lionel down from the table.
Cheeky toddler lion Lionel learns about looking after his own body. His mischievous grin puts the reader instantly on his side, and the tolerant voice of his father provides an amused commentary—and incidentally a lovely model for how to parent.
Series includes Lionel Poops.

School Reading List –
A funny and practical series.
School Library Journal, Betsy Bird –
When you get right down to it, Lionel Eats All By Himself is an entirely different kind of title than Lionel Poops. Both deal with the inherent messiness of toddlers, but in entirely different ways.
Paula Green, Poetry Box –
A brilliant flight-of-imagination story – the ending is genius.
Wandering Booksellers –
Not only relatable but utterly funny and endearing.

Veillé’s vibrant scenes of the mischievous Lionel in combination with the simple texts with their repeat refrains will delight young humans and will surely make adults laugh too.
