Welcome to the Cafe at the Edge of the Woods, the utterly charming picture book from BAFTA award-winning writer Mikey Please.

Rene's dreams have finally come true! She's opened a cafe beside an enchanted wood, and with the help of a newfound waiter, Glumfoot, she is ready to serve the finest cuisine! But the locals seem to favour a most peculiar palette, requesting all sorts of disgusting things.

Can Glumfoot's quick-thinking save the day?

Join Rene and Glumfoot in this incredible other-worldly story full of magical humour, mythical creatures and culinary curiosities.
