A Beasty Story
by Bill Martin Jr (Author) Steven Kellogg (Illustrator)
Two great talents of children's literature team up for the first time to create a ghoulish story that's both scary and snug--a ghastly, ghostly picture book delight starring a creepy beast that may not be so beastly after all. Full-color illustrations.

Four wide-eyed mice enter a dark, dark house in a dark, dark wood, in this not-so-scary tale that also teaches colors. "A high-spirited balance of concept book and adventure tale," noted PW. Ages 3-7. (Sept.)
