A mouse spots a delicious-looking acorn in a tree. Shaking the tree produces a fox, who ogles the "scrumptious mouse." After the mouse climbs the tree, seeking safety, the fox shakes it, producing a hungry warthog, and so on. This book, designed to be read primarily from top to bottom instead of left to right, hasn't an expendable word, and the flat digital art no superfluous line.
