Food Chain
M. P. Robertson
Hardcover
(Frances Lincoln Children's Books, April 27, 2010)
This simple, vivid story follows the food chain created when a naughty boy throws a goldfish down the toilet to see what happens. Little does he realize that the chain of events he starts will come back to haunt him: the goldfish is washed down the drain and reaches the sea, it is eaten by a larger fish, and it in turn is eaten by a larger fish . . . The chain eventually works its way round in a full circle with dramatic results. In this memorably funny, quirky, and clever picture book, readers see that thoughtless actions can have unexpected consequences. Written and illustrated by the successful author of many picture books, Food Chain is a delight for young and old alike.
