M Is for Monster: A Fantastic Creatures Alphabet

32 pp. | Sleeping Bear | August, 2014 | Trade ISBN 978-1-58536-618-1 $16.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Gerald Kelley. Dragons, hippogriffs, ogres--each letter highlights a legendary or mythical monster in this alphabetic tribute. Each monster is described in a silly rhyme, while a sidebar of denser text provides information about its characteristics and origins. Kelley's engaging illustrations vary in style from creature to creature: the skin-walker is loosely rendered in muted browns, while the phoenix is a riot of fiery color.
