Synopsis
Welcome to the Cafe at the Edge of the Woods, the utterly charming and mesmerising new picture book from BAFTA award-winning writer Mikey Please.
Rene's dreams have finally come true! She's opened a cafe beside an enchanted wood, and with the help of a newfound waiter, Glumfoot, she is ready to serve the finest cuisine! But the locals seem to favour a most peculiar palette, requesting all sorts of disgusting things. Can Glumfoot's quick-thinking save the day?
Join Rene and Glumfoot in this incredible other-worldly story full of magical humour, mythical creatures and culinary curiosities.
'I really, really love this story' - Jon Klassen. 'An unusual, intricate, delightfully grotesque rhyming picture book' The Guardian. 'Exasperated parents of picky eaters will love this gorgeously illustrated, gothic gourmet giggle' Daily Mail
