Today We'll Be Eaten

By Alan Barillaro

This classic in the making, perfect for fans of Jon Klassen and Charlie Mackesy, is a reassuring, poetic, and gently humorous story of two friends facing uncertainty and discovering joy.

Written and illustrated by the Academy Award-winning creator of the animated short film Piper.

Ladybug and Dragonfly are caught in a storm, floating upside down and helplessly on the river. They are certain that today they'll be eaten.
But as they stare nervously up at the sky, waiting for that terrible fate
. . . something vastly different happens. By the next morning, they will have made some surprising new friends and learned much about living in the moment and being open to the unexpected.
