Robert Munsch is Canada's best-selling author. His more than 30 books, including Love You Forever, Alligator Baby and We Share Everything, are beloved by all — children, parents, teachers and booksellers — for their hilarious treatment of real issues. MICHAEL MARTCHENKO Michael Martchenko loves to draw. He has illustrated dozens of books, and is most famous for his work with Robert Munsch, including Andrew's Loose Tooth, The Paper Bag Princess and Makeup Mess. Michael lives in Toronto.
PreSchool-Grade 2-Samuel wakes up famished, as Martchenko humorously demonstrates in a colorful, cartoonlike illustration that shows the child's pillow, magazine, and teddy bear with big bites taken out of them. Although his indulgent mom seems willing to feed his enormous appetite, after three bowls of cereal, four milk shakes, four stacks of pancakes, and a fried chicken, she is fed up. Frustrated and "starving," the child jumps on his brother's suggestion that he enter a local pie-eating contest. Of course, he is victorious. Returning home with his prize, he is dismayed to find that his mother has baked him pies for lunch. Munsch's fast-moving plot and deadpan delivery combine with Martchenko's bright hues and outrageous exaggeration to create a typically zany whole. Fans of this author/illustrator team will enjoy their latest collaboration.
