K-3Toon Book series.
Maya's parents insist on dinner manners. When asked, "What if you were eating dinner with the Queen?!" a formal invite comes for Maya to eat with Her Majesty. Maya works hard to mind her manners, but soon she's slurping ketchup-covered pasta. The comedic cartoon panels build to a satisfying climactic spread as the fancy feast turns into a slobbering, finger-licking affair.
