F212 I'm surprised you didn't recognize this: I t must be: Hoban Bread and jam for Frances Thanks for your effort, but unfortunately that is not the book I am looking for. In Bread & Jam for Frances, there are none of the babysitting scenes I described in my original posting. The way I remember the title of the book, it was something like, "Frances babysits" although that can't be right, since I've researched all the Hoban books, and none of them are about Frances babysitting. It's a conundrum! I'm sorry to disagree, but this is NOT Bread and Jam for Frances (written by Russell Hoban, illustrated by Lillian Hoban). In that book, Frances is cured of her picky eating habits when her mother serves her favorite snack, bread and jam, at every meal. She quickly tires of bread and jam and longs for variety in her diet. The stumper requester is looking for a different book! This is definitely NOT Bread and Jam for Frances. Sorry, this is NOT Bread and Jam for Frances. In that book, Frances only wants bread and jam to eat because it is so wonderful, and so she begins to have it served to her at every meal. At first she is happy with the situation but after awhile, watching her family and friends continue to eat makes her less of a picky eater, and she g...
