Il Mostro Pauroso che Non Esisteva. (The Scary Monster that Wasn’t.)

Il Mostro Pauroso che non esisteva‘s full cover.

Today I will bend the rule a bit, and send a second morsel.

Il Mostro Pauroso che non Esisteva is actually the very first book I have written and illustrated. A friend of mine was about to become a grandmother; I wrote the story thinking about one of the most common young children’s fears, and gifted it to the young mom to be at her baby shower. I love the idea to help starting a new child’s library from the very beginning. Children will outgrow cute clothes and toys, the love of books will stay with them for ever!
