“Readers will laugh out loud. . . . Like all Barnett-Klassen collaborations, distinctly funny, imagination-stirring, and lovely to look at.” —Shelf Awareness (starred review) Early one morning, a mouse met a wolf, and he was quickly gobbled up. When a woeful mouse is swallowed by a wolf, he quickly learns he is not alone: a duck has already set up digs, and, boy, has that duck got it figured out! Turns out it’s pretty nice inside the wolf, with delicious food and elegant table settings, courtesy of the wolf’s unchecked gluttony. Even better, the mouse no longer needs to fear being eaten by the wolf! In fact, life is pretty good, until a hunter enters the picture . . . With a nod to traditional fables and a wink to the reader, the award-winning Mac Barnett and Jon Klassen offer a tale of cooperation and creative cuisine that is sure to go down easy.

But little does Kaeldra know what she's getting into. She's about to begin a journey that will entwine her fate with that of three little draclings and one would-be dragonslayer.
