The talented creators of I Will Chomp You! brilliantly frame the struggle to buck stereotypes and learn empathy in this monster’s hilarious lament. Floyd Peterson is so much more than shaggy purple fur and pointy monster teeth— why can’t people just see him for him?

Miles e Niles estavam vivendo a era de ouro da pregação de peças. Cada dia uma mais elaborada e hilária do que a outra. Só que tudo que é bom acaba. Sem querer, os meninos acabam fazendo com que o sr. Bronca seja demitido. Em seu lugar, entra um homem ranzinza que detesta alegria e que fará de tudo para acabar com a epidemia de trotes que se espalhou pela escola. Agora, os dois amigos terão que se esforçar para botar em prática suas peças mais arrojadas e trazer de volta a diversão para a escola.

Como não amar os Dois Terríveis?” Sara Pennypacker, autora de Pax “Terrivelmente engraçado, terrivelmente maravilhoso.” Jon Scieszka, autor da série Frank Einstein

"Bruno, l''ours, a hâte d''aller au lit. Mais Blanco, le canard, veut de la compagnie. Bruno arrivera-t-il à dormir?"--Quatrième de couverture.

STOP RIGHT THERE. Don’t move a muscle, buster. Stay out of this book or I WILL CHOMP YOU! So says the not-so-fierce inhabitant of I Will Chomp You!, a tale of deception, greed . . . and cake! In their funny read-aloud, Jory John and Bob Shea bring a fresh twist to a time-tested blueprint as their little monster threatens, reasons, and pleads with readers to go no further in the book because he will NOT share his beautiful, delicious cakes. Children will identify with the monster’s high valuation of his possessions, and (importantly) will laugh at the silly measures he takes to protect them. "A monster’s reign of terror begins even before the title page: “HEY. GO AWAY.” Turn to the title page and there the monster waits, blue-skinned and angry-eyed: “I WILL CHOMP YOU!” As the reader turns the pages, the monster’s direct-address threats increase: “If you turn any more pages…I WILL CHOMP YOU, BUSTER!” Another page turn and the monster is even angrier: “NOW QUIT IT!” Until finally, “HEY! I’m warning you! You’ve been officially WARNED! CHOMP!” Unfortunately for the monster, the reader is just too fast, and its chomp misses the mark. The monster proceeds to bite, yell, and barrel its way through the pages, repeatedly trying to halt-by-chomping the reader from reaching its secret hidden in the back pages of the book (psst, it’s cake). This book, written entirely as monster monologue, is all bright colors and sharp edges, creating a feeling of temper-tantrum immediacy that matches the silly-angry words. Shea’s illustrations are bold but not too busy, giving the impression of fast movement and strong emotions, and the striped shirt–wearing monster is lovable in an ankle-biting kind of way. The fast pace, funny faces, and silly secret make this a great read-aloud." — Siân Gaetano THE HORN BOOK

"Tutti i miei amici sono morti" è il libro divertente più triste e il libro triste più divertente che mai leggerete. Una graffiante raccolta di ironici dilemmi esistenziali di clown, dinosauri, zombie, pupazzi di neve, piante d''appartamento e molti altri personaggi di fronte all''inevitabile.

If you''re a dinosaur, all of your friends are dead. If you''re a pirate, all of your friends have scurvy. If you''re a tree, all of your friends are end tables. Each page of this laugh-out-loud illustrated humor book showcases the downside of being everything from a clown to a cassette tape to a zombie. Cute and dark all at once, this hilarious children''s book for adults teaches valuable lessons about life while exploring each cartoon character''s unique grievance and wide-eyed predicament. From the sock whose only friends have gone missing to the houseplant whose friends are being slowly killed by irresponsible plant owners (like you), All My Friends Are Dead presents a delightful primer for laughing at the inevitable.

From the authors of the breakout bestseller All my friends are dead. (more than 175,000 copies sold) and in the humorous vein of Go the F**k to Sleep comes a laugh-out-loud collection of bad advice that turns the children''s alphabet book on its head. Adorable illustrated characters lead readers down a path of poor decision-making, and alphabetical, rhyming couplets offer terrible life lessons in which O is for opening things with your teeth, F is for setting Daddy''s wallet on fire, and R is for Raccoon (but definitely not for rabies). With plenty of playfully disastrous choices lurking around every corner, this compendium of black humor may be terrible for actual children, but it''s perfect for the common-senseless child in all adults.

A collection of humorous cartoons depicting a variety of people, or other life forms as they deal with the existential aspects of their lives.
