A darkly funny and graphic long-form picture book that explains the cycle of life through the friendship of a dinosaur and a worm. Every life has a beginning and an end, and if we’re lucky, we make a few true friends along the way. And hopefully those friends won’t eat us. But you never know. When a dinosaur accidentally steps on Frank the worm’s friend, Frank isn’t too upset. He and his buddies will eat the poor guy. After all, that’s what worms do: they eat dead things and return them to the soil. Someday, Frank’s descendants will even … eat the dinosaur. But before it comes to that, there’s plenty of time for Frank and the dinosaur to get to know each other. And even if they can’t protect each other from the tough realities of the world they live in, their unlikely friendship will make life worthwhile.
