I Want to Be in a Scary Story

Sean Taylor

Jean Jullien

“A vibrant, viewpoint-flipping picture book” GuardianPraise for Hoot Owl, Master of Disguise: “This is the funniest picture book I have read in a long time” David WalliamsFrom the team behind the acclaimed Hoot Owl, Master of Disguise comes a very scary read-aloud story … or is it? Monster wants to be in a scary story – but is he brave enough? Scary stories have creepy witches and creaky stairs and dark hallways and spooky shadows… Oh my goodness me! That is very scary. Maybe a funny story would be better after all? Brilliantly interactive, children will delight in the wickedly funny turns-of-the-page, see themselves in the goofy, unconventional monster, and revel in the bold, hilarious illustration of celebrated graphic artist, Jean Jullien.
