Synopsis

Trick or treat?

With nods to Tim Burton, Edward Gorey, and Neil Gaiman, this humorous picture book about a Victorian boy obsessed with monsters presents a dark and appealing world, created by debut author/illustrator Sam Streed.

In the graveyard, between stone monuments for forgotten souls, lurks the Black Shuck. . . . Its one blood-red eye burns with an undying rage.

After reading about the slimy Nixie, the angry Black Shuck, and the creepy Lantern Man in his beloved Book of Monsters, Alfred decides to invite the monsters to teatime with his crusty old aunty, who thinks monsters are an improper obsession for a respectable young boy.

The Nixie soaks at the bottom of the stream, beneath ancient slime and pitch-black mud. Her skin is as cold as the water that flows over her, and her icy tendrils of hair are the growth of one hundred years. 

"Whoa..."

"Alfred, quit reading that dreadful book! It is tea time!"
