The Slimy Hunger

By Massimiliano Villani

When slime spreads, only courage (and two clever cats) can save the day.

The Slimy Hunger is the third book in the illustrated children's fantasy series Sebastian & the Deep Forest, perfect for young readers aged 4 to 9.

Something strange is happening in the enchanted kingdom of Salzburg.
At first, it's just a few tiny trails of slime.
Then vegetables disappear.
Then gardens... whole gardens.
And before anyone understands what's going on, the city finds itself facing a full-scale slimy invasion.

Sebastian, along with his loyal companions
Pippi, the big red-and-white cat, and
Nana, the curious little black kitten,
discovers that the culprits aren't ordinary creatures-they're enormous, hungry, hilarious shell-less slugs from the edge of the Deep Forest. And they're multiplying fast.

To save both Salzburg and the lands beyond, Sebastian must follow the slimy trail deep into unfamiliar territory, uncover the cause of the slugs' mysterious hunger, and restore balance before everything gets eaten-including the festival sweets.

Filled with humor, action, magical creatures and gentle suspense, The Slimy Hunger is perfect for:
✔ bedtime reading and family laughs
✔ young readers who enjoy funny fantasy creatures
✔ kids who love adventure, mysteries and slime
✔ early readers ages 4-9
✔ fans of imaginative, illustrated tales

With lively artwork and a playful story full of mischief, this volume celebrates problem-solving, teamwork and the power of helping even the strangest creatures in need.
