The Ravenous Beast is hungry, hungry, hungry! He’s so hungry he could eat a whole house. Gobble it up! Swallow it down! But all the other animals are claiming that they’re the hungriest of all. What can the Ravenous Beast do to prove them wrong? Niamh Sharkey’s droll, strikingly stylized illustrations lend a fanciful flair to this comical tale of beastly competition - and insatiable appetite.
