Snake Supper
Illustrated by Ant Parker
An entertaining tale of a hungry snake who eats every animal he meets, bulging interestingly the while, until he meets his match in a clever elephant. All the animals survive unharmed and even the snake is satisfyingly unrepentant at the end as he sets off to look for more food. This is a simple and enjoyable book with amusing illustrations which run seamlessly, in the manner of a continuous strip, thanks to the cut-page layout.
