"Magoon's exuberant art recalls classic characters, most particularly
Max in his wolf suit...Fanciful pretend play for the dragon-slaying
preschooler." --Kirkus Reviews
"The dark color palette and mischievous nature of the text are
reminiscent of Jon Klassen's I Want My Hat Back (2011)--albeit with a
different final outcome." --Booklist
From the award-winning author of Warning: Do Not Open This Book! and
beloved illustrator Scott Magoon comes a suspenseful and darkly funny
new picture book about a creature who resists the urge to eat the
animals that wander into his cave...at least for now!
Theodore thinks everything is a potential meal. Lucky for the bird,
wolf, and tiger, who pass by his cave, Theodore isn't hungry...yet. But
then something new approaches. A boy. Has Theodore found a new favorite
food? Or something more?
