О овој е-књизи

"Miéville, known for his genre-defying fantasy novels for adults, makes a splash with his picture book debut . . . a subversive delight." — School Library Journal
Two sisters sit down one morning and begin describing all of the really gross things that were in the worst breakfast they ever had, until all they can picture is a table piled sky-high with the weirdest, yuckiest, slimiest, slickest, stinkiest breakfast possible. And then they have the best breakfast ever . . . almost.
