The Day Louis Got Eaten

The Day Louis Got Eaten is a children's book written and illustrated by John Fardell and published in 2011 by Andersen Press Ltd.

A girl named Sarah is in the woods with her younger brother, Louis, when an orange, furry monster called a Gulper suddenly eats Louis. Knowing that Gulpers usually swallow their prey whole, Sarah a Hiccup Frog and pursues the Gulper. Unfortunately, a giant, black, bird-like creature called a Grabular reaches the Gulper before she does and swallows it. Sarah constructs a hydrobike out of a log, some bike parts, and wheels and continues the chase, but an aquatic creature called an Undersnatch swallows the Grabular before she can get to it. Sarah tries to chase the Undersnatch underwater, but it is swallowed by a green, dinosaur-like creature called a Spiney-backed Guzzler, which itself is later swallowed by a white, furry, long-tusked creature called a Saber-toothed Yumper. Fortunately, nothing eats the Yumper before it reaches its lair, and Sarah is able to crawl into its mouth and that of each respective creature that was swallowed in the adventure. Inside the Gulper's stomach, Sarah unleashes the Hiccup Frog, which bounces around inside the Gulper's stomach, resulting in a chain reaction that culminates in Sarah, Louis, the Hiccup Frog, and all of the creatures being burped out. However, the creatures are all now very hungry and crowd around Sarah, until Louis shouts at them to get away from her or he will eat them up. The frightened creatures flee, allowing Louis and Sarah to get home on a hoverbike (presumably) invented by Sarah.
