The Day Louis Got Eaten

Louis and his older sister Sarah were out riding when suddenly Louis got eaten by a large creature.  Sarah chases after trying to save him when suddenly the creature who ate Louis is eaten by another larger creature.  This happens three more times.  Finally Sarah catches up the the last and largest creature, crawls in it’s mouth, and into each mouth of each creature until she reaches Louis, who is calmly reading and waiting for her.  She figures out their escape, which works, and then the creatures all turn on her and Louis saves her in return.  First graders loved the story and did not even stop to think of how that could even remotely happen.  They cheered for Louis standing up to the creatures saving Sarah.  Who knew?  The illustrations look to be colored pencil, clear and crisp.  All in all, a fun book.
