Henry loves books for all of the interesting and exciting new facts and ideas that come from them, but he just doesn’t love reading them. Because books are so full of annoying, complicated, indecipherable words. So, he tries eating them instead! After chowing down on libraries full of books, Henry gets smarter than he ever imagined–but also realizes that his banquet of books can’t last forever. A story about literally biting off more than you can chew, this new musical celebrates the joy of reading and the insatiable appetite for knowledge. Inspired by award-winning children’s book author Oliver Jeffers’ hilarious book, The Incredible Book Eating Boy promises to leave you full!
