I WANT TO BE IN A SCARY STORY

Illustrated by Jean Jullien
Published 2017 by Walker Books

Little Monster wants to be in a scary story – but then again, scary stories have creepy witches, creaky stairs, dark hallways and spooky ghosts. OH MY GOODNESS ME! Maybe a funny story would be better, after all. From the team that brought you bestselling HOOT OWL, MASTER OF DISGUISE, this is another original picture book that promises lots of laughs.

This is beautifully structured for reading aloud; a vibrant, viewpoint-flipping picture book that should lessen small readers’ fairytale fears. The Guardian

A cracking picture book…. Sean Taylor knows just how much scariness little monsters, purple or otherwise, can take, and his clever scaling back of the terror as the tale proceeds, is spot on for keeping young listeners on the edge of their seats. Red Reading Hub

Sean Taylor’s creepy cute adventure won’t fail to appeal to young book lovers, and makes for a deliciously collaborative story time experience. My Book Corner
