Carmen Agra Deedy, New York Times bestselling author and one of Scholastic's most talented and cherished storytellers, retells a hilarious folktale set in Havana, Cuba. Illustrated by the brilliant, award-winning artist, Henry Cole.
"This fun folktale will delight readers of all ages." -- School Library Journal
"Catchy text is clever through the final playfully gruesome scene." -- The Horn Book
The trouble started when Pepe the parrot fell in love with . . . a CAT!
Hoping to win her paw, he invited her to his house for dinner.
But within moments of arriving--with a gobble and a gulp--Carina swallowed that love-sick parrot whole!
And he was just the appetizer!
In this Cuban retelling of a classic folktale, Carmen Agra Deedy and Henry Cole merge their talents to create a wickedly funny and inspiring picture book that proves the smallest of creatures can sometimes possess the most surprising strength!
