"This is a bizarre alternate world inhabited by creatures that look like they've been in the sun too long and gone bad. A contradictory land where everything comes with sharp pointy teeth but then tries to work a way into your heart with their deceptive charms"
- Clutter Magazine
Gustav the kid makes the mother of all messes in his room but has found the ultimate excuse to avoid getting into trouble: he claims he's become a monster! But his parents call in an expert to determine if their son has really transformed...and Gustav learns a lesson he'll never forget!
Drawn in the artist's unique style, this collection is chock full of even more short stories, full of hidden jokes and hilarious wordplay in the tradition of Shel Silverstein, Dr.Seuss, and Roald Dahl.
