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."

How to Eat Like a Child
After reading a review from Goodreads, I ordered this book from the local library. It's very funny and entertaining, but many of the ideas that were found humorous and acceptable in 1977, would not be so today. An example might be of sliding your cat down the railing or making fun of classmates and neighbors. The author's illustrations, especially among the first are so accurate (such as smashing your potatoes down and putting the mashed peas on top without eating it), that it made me chuckle to remember doing it, often as a child, and occasionally as an adult. Now I witness it in the next generations down. Life doesn't change all that much.
Definitely worth the read; just remember that social culture was different when the book was written.
