Description

A Frankenstein is big.

He could push you really high on the swing. He'd never get tired of giving you rides on his shoulder.

A Frankenstein would be the perfect new best friend.

Maybe you could build one. . . .

No!

Wait!

Whatever you do, Do Not Build a Frankenstein!




About the Author

By Neil Numberman has been drawing monsters since he was two years old. However, he has not gotten around to building a Frankenstein (yet). He currently resides in New York City, where he once cut his teeth at a topflight children's bookstore. This is his first picture book.




Praise For Do Not Build a Frankenstein!

“Numberman is a nimble, funny writer, and he opts for showing rather than telling, his naïf watercolors scoring a punch line every time.”
-Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“This is a light, fun, and awfully cute intro to the famous horror icon.”
-ALA Booklist
