Welcome to a restaurant unlike any other, where the customers are not people but animals. Through playful rhymes and humorous situations, Animal Restaurant introduces readers to the favorite foods of a wide range of creatures, from dogs and fleas to whales, fish, cows, and beetles. Some have refined tastes, others rather surprising ones, but every guest finds exactly what is on their menu.
Created by Blandina Franco and José Carlos Lollo, an award-winning creative duo recognized by distinctions including the Jabuti Prize and the Bologna Ragazzi Digital Honourable Mention, the book combines humor, rhythm, and wordplay to transform information about animal eating habits into an engaging literary experience. The text’s strong musicality and cumulative structure make it especially appealing for read-aloud sessions and early readers.
José Carlos Lollo’s illustrations bring the restaurant to life with expressive characters, visual jokes, and vibrant compositions that expand the narrative beyond the verses. Text and image work together to create a lively world where fantasy and natural history meet, encouraging readers to observe animals while delighting in their unexpected culinary preferences.
