"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
