The Day Louis Got Eaten is a children's book written and illustrated by John Fardell and published in 2011 by Andersen Press Ltd. Tab the ends of the legs and hot glue them to the oatmeal container. I added some construction paper fringes to my monster legs, and some kids elected to use markers for further decorating.

Descriptive Statement: Content includes identification of personal interactions; communication skills; ways of meeting emotional, physical, and intellectual needs; and I loved this book the second I read the first sentence. The bluntness and light-heartedness with which Fardell presents what should be a set of tragic events gives the story great comic effect. Equally, its use of repetition should engage children and encourage ‘joining in’ (National Curriculum, p21) after a few reads through. In particular, the constant re-occurance of the phrase ‘but, unfortunately’ will both introduce children to the idea of conjunctives (even if the word is not understood at first) as well as allowing them to explore the idea of narrative structure and sequencing (p24).
