Description
The second in a funny new series from former Children's Laureate Michael Rosen and rising star Robert Starling.
Look out, this squirrel is HUNGRY. So hungry it could eat boiled rice, chocolate mice, a gingerbread man ... even a frying pan! Is there anything it WON'T eat?
A rollicking ride of increasing absurdity and imagination, this hilarious picture book captures the occasional outlandishness of toddler moods. Based on the popular poem from A Great Big Cuddle, I Am Hungry is a terrific read-aloud from the master of rhyme, Michael Rosen, coupled with brilliantly bold illustration from Robert Starling.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
The illustrations by Starling in I Am Hungry are praised for their humour and charm, depicting an adorable squirrel engaging in playful antics like grabbing ice creams and even attempting to munch on the moon. The book is appreciated for its lively and engaging portrayal of a cheeky little hero.
