Nanette's Baguette

(2) K-3 Young frog Nanette's mother entrusts her daughter with the responsibility of purchasing a baguette at the bakery. However, Nanette loses all willpower and eats it whole before reaching home. Alongside digitally rendered characters placed in a meticulously designed and photographed paper-crafted setting, Willems's playful text positively revels in assonant wordplay; his punch line reveals where Nanette has acquired her weakness for baguettes.
