Amy Gets Eaten

Description

The debut picture book from Adam Kay, record-breaking bestselling author of Kay's Anatomy and This is Going to Hurt. The first-ever picture book from Adam Kay and Henry Paker. This is the hilarious (and admittedly a tiny bit gross) tale of Amy, a small piece of sweetcorn who is eaten by Noah, a medium-sized boy. The story follows Amy on her funny, gooey and anatomically-accurate adventure through the human body as she discovers lots of facts about digestion. (It's fair to say that parents might learn a little bit too.) Praise for Kay's Anatomy- 'An enjoyably gross look at the human body. Hours of gruesome fun guaranteed' i 'Like listening to a teacher who makes pupils fall about' Sunday Times 'Totally brilliant!' Jacqueline Wilson 'Fun and informative' Malorie Blackman 'Very funny - this exciting book is bound to inspire the next generation of medics' Sunday Express Praise for Kay's Marvellous Medicine- 'A ridiculously funny read that will delight, gross out and educate all at the same time' Independent 'Educational and entertaining. It should be on the national curriculum!' Harry Hill 'Completely marvellous and very funny' BookTrust
