Description:
Rene has finally made her dream come true: a café of her very own, right beside an enchanted wood, where she can serve the finest, most delicious cuisine. With her oddball green waiter Glumfoot at her side, she's ready for customers — except the only ones who turn up are the woods' peculiar locals, and a hungry ogre wants nothing but pickled bats, slugs and maggots! Horrified, Rene nearly gives up — until a little quick thinking and clever compromise turns her gourmet dishes into deliciously ghoulish-looking grub, and the café becomes the busiest spot for miles. A gorgeously illustrated, rhyming, darkly funny treat about teamwork, friendship and bending your dreams.
