Hubert the Pudge: A Vegetarian Tale

Hardcover (Candlewick Oct. 10, 2006) , 1st edition
The droll, offbeat tale of a pudge who escapes the pudge-eating world to find personal growth — and change his destinyHubert is a pudge, and pudges can never grow up. Instead, they are trucked off to the meat factory when they are still young and turned into TV dinners, microwave sausage links, and other greasy food products. But when Hubert manages to escape to the wild, he feasts on luscious grass, exotic orchids, and skunk cabbage. The more he eats, the bigger he grows, and soon Hubert is the biggest pudge since ancient times. He is giant! He is humongous! And he must fulfill his destiny. From the singular Henrik Drescher comes a quirky fable about the responsibilities that come from being larger than life.
