A hungry python invites the jungle animals to a party, where a competition culminates with his own amazing trick of fitting them all into his mouth. Only the timely intervention of the elephant saves the guests from their folly. Wildsmith excels at bold, brightly colored illustrations of animals, and this cautionary tale is a visual delight.
