A funny audiobook about books...and eating them! Perfect for fans of We Don't Eat Our Classmates.

It's time for school, but Ms. Bronte has one small problem...she really loves eating books. (Did I mention she's also a dinosaur?) Math books, cookbooks, old books, new books--she just can't help herself. Will Ms. Bronte ever be able to curb her page-turning appetite, or will she continue chomping her way through a tasty book buffet? Get ready for a story that will leave listeners hungry for a second helping!

Go to Sleep!; Ten Tiny Toes; Three Grumpy Trucks; and How to Become a Knight (in Ten Easy Lessons). He lives with his family in New York.
