Creature Carnival by Gris Grimly, Marilyn Singer

libraryrobin's review against another edition

4.0

Many allusions to characters throughout literature and mythology make this collection of poems a true gem. Combining them with Gris Grimly's illustrations makes this a must-read for all slightly-warped bibliophiles.

Probably the most badass children's book I own.

dark funny fast-paced

Lots of rhyming fun with mythical and scary screamers. Everything from Beauty's beast to gargoyles, and sphinxes.  This was a great read and Grimly’s illustrations were the icing on this literary cake.
