Description
Samuel has woken up hungry and it seems that nothing can satisfy him. For breakfast he eats huge bowls of cereal, milk shakes, stacks of pancakes, and two fried chickens, but it's not enough. Luckily, there's a pie eating contest in the park, where Samuel eats not one not two, but SIX pies — CHUKA CHUKA CHOMP! To everyone's surprise, he wins the contest without turning green and falling under the table. But what will happen when he discovers his mother has made him yet another pie for lunch?! Munsch's rollicking read-aloud text blends flawlessly with Martchenko's bright and playful illustrations. More Pies! is a hilarious story sure to delight Munsch fans of all ages.1
