「既聰明、可愛又黑暗，三者兼具。嘖嘖。」——凱迪克獎章與榮譽得主 Jon Klassen。
從前有一隻飢餓的獅子，還有一群可愛的動物……你覺得接下來發生了什麼事？
從前有一隻飢餓的獅子、一隻企鵝（嗯，他剛剛還在這裡……）、一隻小花貓（我明明剛才還看到他的……）、一隻棕色老鼠（等等……）、一隻垂耳兔和一隻不垂耳的兔子（好了，這真的太離譜了）、一隻青蛙、一隻蝙蝠、一隻豬、一隻稍微大一點的豬、一隻毛茸茸的綿羊、一隻無尾熊、一隻母雞，還有一隻烏龜。嘿！這裡到底發生了什麼事……
這隻非常飢餓的獅子正準備和其他動物朋友們一起度過精彩的一天。但突然間，他的朋友們開始以驚人的速度消失！是有人偷走了飢餓獅子的朋友，還是罪魁禍首其實……就在身邊？
這本處女作繪本以犀利的機智、可愛的插圖和層出不窮的爆笑轉折，向讀者提問——你覺得飢餓獅子的朋友們到底怎麼了？
My kids laughed nervously at the twist ending, and I did too—this book is deceptively simple but packs that dark humor Jon Klassen mentions. The illustrations have this weirdly charming deadpan vibe that makes the "adorable animals" part feel extra sinister.
The pacing is perfect for a read-aloud—my kid giggled at the adorable animals, then went totally quiet at the twist. Jon Klassen’s blurb on the cover is spot on; it’s dark in that sly, clever way that makes adults snicker too.
The twist at the end genuinely caught me off guard—my kid asked for it again immediately, and that Jon Klassen blurb on the cover is spot-on. The pacing is tight enough to hold a squirmy four-year-old’s attention, and the dark humor lands perfectly for the grown-up reading it aloud.
