    About this ebook

    Meet the world's most unusual monsters in this darkly funny collection of creatures and cryptids from folkloric history. Illustrator Emma SanCartier captures the bizarre and hilarious elements of 17 monsters from around the world in a light, tongue-in-cheek tone, from the Japanese dream-eater Baku and the Persian carnivorous unicorn Shadhavar to the Eastern-European Shurale, a literal tickle monster. Illustrated in lush watercolor, Monsters You Should Know is a perfect primer for the many strange, frightening, and compelling things that go bump in the night.

      By far the most annoying font-swapping of any book I've experienced. :>P
    • 5/5
      I loved the art in this so much! It seemed like a pretty eclectic group of monsters. It was perfectly spooky for my monster lovers without being overly scary.

      A very cute bestiary! And a macabre, funny read.
