From the Back Cover
Baby monsters are cute.
They're fun. They're adorable. But when baby monsters grow up, they can also be an awful lot of trouble. They can be messy, silly, and BIG! Too big, sometimes.
It's a good thing they're so cute!
Right?
Review Quotes
"Elise Gravel's kooky cartoons are full of her trademark irony and wit. [She] includes just the right dose of gross, with requisite scenes of nose picking and toilet humor. I Want a Monster! is more fun than a barrel of baby Oogly-Wumps." -- Quill & Quire
