"This book is for rebellious adults only. . . . Inspires instant recognition of childhoods past. . . . A joy."--People

Universal and timeless, Delia Ephron's How to Eat Like a Child is a delightful revisiting of the joys--and tricky ploys--of childhood. Made into a children's television special and a musical theater revue performed across the country each year, How to Eat Like a Child offers advice beyond the artful etiquette of food consumption. Ephron also teaches us "How to Laugh Hysterically," "How to Have a Birthday Party," "How to Torture Your Sister," and much, much more. As the Washington Post Book World noted, After the giggles of recognition have subsided, one thing will be very clear: all adults are kids in grown-ups' clothing."


Rediscover the lost arts of being a kid in this hilarious collection of observational comedy:


  • Childhood Memories: A pitch-perfect guide to everything from the proper way to eat an Oreo to the undeniable truth that mashed potatoes are a canvas for gravy rivers.
  • Family Humor: Featuring timeless, deadpan instructions on essential skills like "How to Torture Your Sister" and how to act after being sent to your room.
  • Rebellious Childhood: Learn the secret logic behind playing sick, talking on the telephone for hours, and convincing your mom to let you watch more television.
  • Nostalgic Humor: A perfect funny gift for adults who remember a time of secret clubs, scraped knees, and the universal truth that all grown-ups are just kids in bigger clothing.
