Cute dark story with wonderful art. Review to come soon at Fantasy Literature. http://www.fantasyliterature.com
Story
I liked this one a lot more than the first. It was less depressing for one. It's still quite twisted in places though, and definitely dark. I thought it was a lot of fun though, and as a picture book, a very quick/easy read.
If you liked the first one, you'll likely enjoy this, and if you were so-so on the first, you should give this one a shot, you may find it an improvement like I did.
It's still a borrow from the library book thing for me though. It's not something I'd read a bunch of times, which is the only real way to get value out of owning it in my opinion.
Artwork
Nate Taylor again does an excellent job with the artwork. There are a few pages without narration that really shine, but more importantly the facial expressions are really excellent. The art fits well with the story too. It has the look of a children's book while really being dark and fiendish.
