 Este libro es una pequeña enciclopedia ilustrada con mostruos alrededor del mundo.

Sin dudas el beceficio es la elección de los mismos ya que hay variedad para todos los gustos: zorros que seducen, pequeños animalitos que comen pesadillas, criaturas vampíricas y hasta algún que otro espíritu solitario.

El punto fuerte del libro es la ilustración que combina ciertos razgos mosntruosos sin perder su cualidad de adorable. Hay información que acompaña a las criaturas para que conozcamos porqué deberíamos temerle, pero es el dibujo el que hace la mayor parte del trabajo.

En resumen, una bella compilación de mosntruos que suma un poco más al combinar el comienzo y el final.

A beautiful book that collects illustrations of different monsters from folklore around the world.

The art is incredible, it manages to make the creatures cute and adorable even if they are pure evil.
The monster selection is great too, I really enjoyed the author choosing less popular critters.

A great option for kids with the perfect balance of creepy and cute.
Also, how it starts and how it ends... wonderful.
