News and commentary on books and writers


Thursday, September 07, 2006

Johnny over at Drawn.ca and I are in perfect agreement: Frankenstein Makes a Sandwich by Adam Rex is perhaps the greatest book we’ve read in a long time.

Here’s the review on Drawn.ca

Frankenstein Makes a Sandwich is a book of poems for kids. It’s packed with small rhyming stories and incredible paintings of the monsters the poems are about.

I think the subtitle is one of my favourite parts: Frankenstein Makes a Sandwich (and other stories you’re sure to like, because they’re all about monsters, and some of them are also about food. You like food, don’t you? Well, alright then)

Adam Rex is beyond talented. Check out the review on Drawn.ca and the link to an interview with Adam at Ironic Sans. Although this is a picture book aimed at kids, those of us “kids-at-heart” will die laughing too.
