'Glumfoot grew up in a cave, where every morning, father made a bogey broth, served with a spade. He dreamed of something sweeter…'

Glumfoot saves the day once again in another brilliantly disgusting story about hungry bellies, bogey broth and human-eating ogres from award-winning author Mikey Please

A new brilliantly illustrated rhyming picture book from Waterstones Prize Winner Mikey Please, author of The Cafe at the Edge of the Woods

Every night, Glumfoot dreams of delicious meals and every night he is served the same thing: his dad’s bogey broth. He is overjoyed one day to discover the new café at the edge of the woods – but when one very hungry ogre decides he’ll eat the owner, it’s down to Glumfoot to save the chef, and with it, his dreams of ever having a good meal.

Revisit the Cafe at the Edge of the Woods and join Rene and Glumfoot in this return to their gloriously gruesome culinary world where you're never quite sure what's on the menu – or who the customer will be…
