We Don't Eat Our Classmates! (Penelope Book 1)

by Ryan T. Higgins (Author)

It's the first day of school for Penelope Rex, and she can't wait to meet her classmates. But it's hard to make human friends when they're so darn delicious! That is, until Penelope gets a taste of her own medicine and finds she may not be at the top of the food chain after all. . . . Readers will gobble up this hilarious new story from award-winning author-illustrator Ryan T. Higgins.

In a vibrant jungle teeming with unique and fascinating creatures, there lived a young hippopotamus named Penelope. With her infectious enthusiasm and endearing clumsiness, Penelope embarked on a remarkable journey filled with laughter, friendship, and a valuable lesson about respecting boundaries.

Penelope's world was one of endless wonder and boundless energy. She loved exploring the lush jungle, meeting new animals, and discovering hidden treasures. However, one thing that perplexed Penelope was the strange behavior of her classmates. Whenever lunchtime approached, they would scamper away, disappearing into the thick undergrowth, leaving her all alone.

Determined to unravel this mystery, Penelope set out on a mission to investigate her classmates' peculiar habits. With her trusty notebook in hand, she ventured into the jungle, observing her friends from a distance. To her surprise, she discovered that they were gathering around a large pot, each taking turns to dip their spoons inside.

Curiosity consumed Penelope, and she couldn't resist the urge to ask what was happening. With a sweet and innocent voice, she inquired, "Excuse me, friends. What are you eating?" But instead of receiving a friendly response, Penelope was met with startled gasps and horrified expressions.

One by one, her classmates revealed the shocking truth: they were eating their classmates! Penelope was appalled. She couldn't believe that her friends were capable of such a heinous act. With a resolute stance, she declared, "We don't eat our classmates! It's not right!"

Her words resonated through the jungle, causing the animals to pause and reflect on their actions. They realized that Penelope was right. Eating their classmates was not only wrong but also harmful to their community. From that day forward, the animals vowed to change their ways and embrace a life of peace and harmony.
