The Cafe at the Edge of the Woods

Lemony Snicket meets Jon Klassen meets Grimms'' fairy tales in an outrageously original picture book debut by BAFTA Award-winning and Oscar-nominated animation director Mikey Please. In The Cafe at the Edge of the Woods , an aspiring chef opens a cafe beside an enchanted forest and discovers locals with a most peculiar palette. Rene and Glumfoot are ready to serve Very Fine Cuisine at the Cafe at the Edge of the Woods. But when their first customer, an ogre, demands pickled bats that smell like farts , Rene is ready to give up! She can''t possibly serve such rubbish. Or can she? With a little bit of compromise, perhaps she can satisfy her customer and still serve the most delicious grub. Full of humor, unlikely friendship, themes of teamwork, and unexpected surprises, this charming and hilarious picture book is a winning recipe for readers who loved A Spoonful of Frogs by Casey Lyall, The Dark by Lemony Snicket, The Skull by Jon Klassen, and any fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm!
