Crankenstein

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Dan Santat. Sometimes when you have to do things you don't want to, all you can say is "MEHHRRRR!" The life of the little guy depicted here seems to be one unfortunate event after another, and he responds accordingly. This is a No, David! for slightly older kids, with intense but comical close-ups of a child's enraged face, turned Frankenstein's-monster-green for that Halloween touch.
