One Day in the Eucalyptus, Eucalyptus Tree
<p><strong>“A hungry snake. A beautiful brown boy. What more can a young reader ask for?â€â€”National Book Award winner Jacqueline Woodson</strong></p><p>A sneaky snake has no idea that the captives in his belly are planning their escape! In the spirit of <em>There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly</em> by Simms Taback, the reader sees a cutaway of the snake’s belly and can even guess how the tale ends! Classic and contemporary, timeless and fresh, <em>One Day in the Eucalyptus, Eucalyptus Tree</em> has a syncopated and rhythmically delightful text perfect for reading aloud. </p><p>Daniel Bernstrom’s debut picture book is nothing short of splendid, and is acompanied by magical illustrations from rising star Brendan Wenzel (<em>They All Saw a Cat</em>, <em>Some Pets</em>, Some Bugs, <em>Beastly Babies</em>). It has received three starred reviews and was named one of the best read-alouds of the year!</p>
