Grizzly Tales: Nasty Little Beasts
Orion (128 pages) 9781842555491
A range of type sizes and page layouts, interspersed with lots of little drawings, add to the attractions promised by a sub-title, 'Cautionary Tales for Lovers of Squeam'. After dire warnings and alerts addressed to all nasty little beasts, there are six stories with vivid titles like 'The Grub-A-Blub-Blub', 'The Fruit Bat' and 'The Clothes Pig'. All are funnily gruesome and all include loathsome children who meet with fate and get their just deserts at the hands of whatever they've been most spiteful towards, be it the glass-eyed toys or a python. There are more series titles to find and each has seriously silly stuff and perfectly pitched writing.
