Soon nothing is safe from getting swallowed whole by Danny McGee—not the mountains, not the trees, not even the weather girl on TV! He eats up America and all the people in the whole world (including the author, who is writing this book from inside Danny McGee!). Danny swallows the alphabet and all the numbers, until there is absolutely nothing left . . . except, of course, his big sister, Frannie McGee. Absurdist humor throughout, along with a delicious twist at the end, will have kids laughing uncontrollably at this one-of-a-kind picture book.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Praise for the work of illustrator Neal Layton:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"Layton's \u003cb\u003eplayful mixed-media illustrations evoke\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003eLudwig Bemelmans and John Burningham\u003c\/b\u003e.
