I can’t believe this is book is so short! The child-beastly fairy tale stories had a hold on me in the early 2010s, and this story was among them so  cinematically stunning and beautifully narrated in film and audio form. It’s just about a kid whose imagination is louder than his appetite and he realizes the bliss in the simple less-imaginative world of home. Cute easy read.
