A Growling Place is a picture book written and illustrated by Thomas Aquinas Maguire, published on August 28, 2007, by Simply Read Books in Vancouver, British Columbia.

The story of a young girl named Aril is told primarily with long horizontal images and few words. Though it is a picture book, A Growling Place makes use of chapters - each chapter name is a simple concept in the progression of the story and is highlighted in the sentence in which it appears.
