Me Hungry!

By Jeremy Tankard

PICTURE BOOK


Poor Edwin! He is hungry and his parents are too busy to get him a snack. What's a boy to do? Hunt! Did I mention this book takes place in prehistoric times? Sorry, I forgot! Since his parents are too busy, Edwin goes on a journey to find himself some food. He encounters several animals who are ready to show him how the animal kingdom really works! Edwin also learns about friendship on his journey. Does he finally get something to eat? You'll have to read the book to find out! This book is really funny and the illustrations are bold and bright. One page is Edwin saying "me hungry" and the following page is the animal's response. There is a lot of repetition, which makes this a wonderful story to share during a storytime with toddlers or pre-schoolers. Now, I must run because "Me Hungry!"
