I don't even remember the plot! I know it was a picture book. I believe it was a portly man who was eaten up. There is a clear image in my mind of the couch - at an angle - with just eyeglasses and possibly a cravat or tie on the cushions - which was all that was left of him.
I would have read it in the late 70's/early 80's, but my husband remembers the same thing, which could put it back in the 60's, or earlier still.
Nothing like a sinister children's book to remember after all these years...the drawings perhaps had lurid overtones, but I am not sure.
Thanks to anyone who might know!
