The classic ABC book gets a darkly comic makeover with Monster ABC. Kids with an appreciation for the offbeat and spooky will love this thorough catalog of ghouls. You know Sasquatch and the Loch Ness Monster, but what about Quetzalcoatl, the feathered snake god, or Xing Tian, whose face is on his belly and whose head is nowhere to be seen? A wry description accompanies each cute illustration, making this an indispensable bedtime book for both parents and children who delight in the darker corners of the imagination.
