Product Details

Carmen Agra Deedy, New York Times bestselling author and one of
Scholastic’s most talented and cherished storytellers, retells a hilarious
folktale set in Havana, Cuba. Illustrated by the brilliant, award-winning artist,
Henry Cole. This is the first collaboration by this dynamic duo!
The trouble started with a parrot and a bad idea. Pepe the parrot was beak over
claws in love . . . with a cat! Until . . . With a gobble and slurp, Carina swallowed
that parrot whole! In fact — she ate everyone in her path: A florista and her
flowers, the carretaro and his ox, a chivo and his boy — and more! Who will be
able to stop this greedy cat? In this wickedly funny, classic folktale infused with
vivid color and Cuban spice, Carmen Agra Deedy and Henry Cole have merged
their talents to create an inspiring and satisfying picture book that proves it’s the
smallest of creatures who sometimes possess the most surprising strength!

Carmen Agra Deedy is one of America's foremost storytellers. Her many awardwinning books include The Rooster Who Would Not Be Quiet!; Martina the
Beautiful Cockroach, which received a Pura Belpré Honor; and her New York
Times bestseller 14 Cows for America. Carmen was born in Havana, Cuba, and
lives with her family in Atlanta, Georgia. You can learn more about her work at

Henry Cole was an adored elementary-school science teacher for sixteen years.
He has since illustrated over 150 popular books (some of which he has also
authored), including his wordless, award-winning picture book Unspoken, which
was named an ALA Notable Children’s Book and a New York Times Best
Illustrated Children’s Book, and his book One Little Bag: An Amazing Journey,
which was also named an ALA Notable Book, and received three starred reviews.
He lives in Florida. To find out more about Henry, go to henrycole.net.
