WIN $150 GIFT VOUCHERS: ALADDIN'S GOLD
Derek and Kyle Sullivan are just your average set of monozygotic twins on a mission to conjure stories and characters that parents enjoy as much as their children. To get there, they never lose sight of their target audience: themselves as children. Raised in the Pacific Northwest on crayons, ghost stories and fish sticks, Derek is now a Seattle-based illustrator and designer, while Kyle bides his time as a writer in Portland.
From 'A is for Alien' to 'Z is for Zombie, ' Monster ABC's rhyming text gives simple introductions to the monsters of the alphabet; silly illustrations make even the scariest of monsters near impossible to find frightening. --Shelf Awareness Innovative, modern and incredibly fun. Rhyming board books are prevalent, but rollicking, fun ones are rarer. --Creators Syndicate Incredibly imaginative and funny artwork --Creators Syndicate From A is for Alien to Z is for Zombie, twins Derek and Kyle Sullivan have a winner of a board book on their hands with Monster ABC. --PDX Parent Magazine It's a refreshing change from saccharine kids' stories, and includes verses like 'G is for Ghost who gave us a start/H is for Hobgoblin who smells like a fart' and 'Y is for Yeti who's quite hard to find/Z is for Zombie with your brain on his mind.' The children's board book is quirky fun from Alien to Zombie. --Seattle Times ShopNW Christmas Gift Guide Monster ABC is our favorite new family book this year.
