Sent across the Atlantic on an ocean liner in order to visit her grandmother in Scotland, young Katerina-Elizabeth continually chucks her oatmeal - a food she simply cannot stand! - out the porthole. It is eaten by a little ocean worm, who begins to grow exponentially, as he follows the ship across the sea. Eventually ship, girl and worm reach Loch Ness, where the now gigantic creature becomes the fabled Nessie, AKA the Loch Ness Monster...

An immensely entertaining original pourquoi story, The Luck of the Loch Ness Monster: A Tale of Picky Eating pairs an amusing tale from author A.W. Flaherty with expressive artwork from illustrator Scott Magoon. Any child who has had a food they just didn't like - for me, it was spinach! - will identify with Katerina-Elizabeth, and will appreciate this creative explanation for how the Loch Ness Monster came to be. There's even an author's afterword discussing being a picky eater, and the science behind it. Recommended to all young picky eaters, and to Loch Ness Monster fans. ( )

We loved this creative explanation of Nessie! The illustrations were muted and simply perfect for to the time and place of the story. My 7yo was completely engrossed! ( )

Maybe a little long for read aloud but super silly. A girl travels to Scotland and throws her oatmeal out the window of the boat every morning. A little baby sea monster, Nessie, eats all the tossed out oatmeal and gets bigger and bigger, and viola the Loch Ness monster is born. ( )

I like this book.It was a funny book.It was funny when the people get scared of what the worm turns into.People who like stuff that turns into stuff get it And I hate oatmael too. ( )

This is a fantastic tale of how the loch ness monster started as a tiny worm that discovered oatmeal that was thrown out a porthole by a little girl that despised oatmeal. So, everyday the worm ate the oatmeal that was thrown out and grew bigger and bigger. Eventually, the little girl’s boat docked in Loch Ness and the worm, who was now so big they called him a monster, showed his face while searching for oatmeal. This adorable Bluebonnet Book 2009-2010 is written by a neurologist who writes in her author’s note about the genetics of picky eaters but doesn’t touch on the possibility of a real Loch Ness monster. The illustrations are wonderful and even the font chosen is a winner! Love this book! ( )
