The mouth-wateringly irresistible tale of a boy’s insatiable hunger! Henry loves books… but not like you and I. He loves to EAT books! This exciting new story follows the trials and tribulations of a boy with a voracious appetite for books. Henry discovers his unusual taste by mistake one day, and is soon swept up in his new-found passion – gorging on every delicious book in sight! And better still, he realises that the more books he eats, the smarter he gets. Henry dreams of becoming the Incredible Book Eating Boy – the smartest boy in the world! But a book-eating diet isn’t the healthiest of habits, as Henry soon finds out…

絶対にCD付がいいです！！
絵本そのものも斬新な工夫があって秀作だと思いますが（ケイト・グリーナウェイ賞・チルドレンズブック賞候補）、何と言っても、ジム・ブロードベントの朗読がいいです。音楽効果音はもちろん、本に書かれていないセリフも録音されているので、不思議な雰囲気が良く伝わります。 絶対にＣＤ付がお勧めです！！

libri oltre l'immaginazione
i libri illustrati di Oliver Jeffers sono perle da un mondo che si trova al di là dell'immaginazione. Le storie sono accattivanti, in alcuni cassi addirittura edificanti, piccoli romanzi di formazione per bimbi. Ti commuovono e fanno ridere. Le illustrazioni poi sarebbero da incorniciare una per una. Insomma, potrebbero essere usati anche come oggetti da arredamento, tanto sono belli (ma non è questo l'uso che consiglierei !!!). Insomma, un regalo prezioso per il bambino e per l'adulto. Li ho acquistati nella versione inglese per facilitare l'apprendimento della lingua. Ma in italiano, son sicura, darebbero lo stesso effetto. Viva Jeffers !

Great book, humorous and original.
Well written with great illustrations. The book has a great message delivered in a silly way, which my daughter truly enjoyed.

Wunderbare Geschichte mit eigenwilligen superschönen Illustrationen
Ich liebe die Bücher von Oliver Jeffers und seinen Stil sehr. Aber dieses Buch ist mir von allen das liebste. Vor allem die Abbildung, wie der Junge das Buch aufisst und es dann in seinen Bauch und sein Hirn kommt.
