(What do little Sam Ruskin, sweet Victoria Glassford, and Mr. Singh, the security guard, have in common? Each of them was utterly consumed by the book you see pictured above. Utterly--and literally.

John Perry's darkly humorous text, paired with Mark Fearing's illustrations of this book's people-eating history, will make children laugh...and wonder if the book they hold in their hands might be a stealthy predator. Gulp!
