Why read it?
1 author picked Eat Pete as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
A monster goes to Pete’s house with the intention to eat him. Pete asks the monster to play with various games and toys. The monster reluctantly does so, but each time the text goes, “He didn’t want to play...because he wanted to...EAT PETE!” Then something shocking happens – he eats Pete! Let me assure you, though, the ending is very sweet.
From Keiko's list on with humor and twist endings.
