(2) PS Felix & Fiona series. In the guinea pig pals' fourth book (Felix Stands Tall, et al.), cautious Felix steps out of his comfort zone again, here at a Chinese restaurant. Particular about food, Felix has "no need to try anything new." Cheered on along the way by Fiona, Felix eventually eats "twelve new things!" Wells's friendly illustrations gently portray Felix's concerns about the unfamiliar without allowing them to overwhelm the story.
