Mostly Monsters

Rating:
Summary: Several classic horror stories retold in simple English
Review: This is an excellent book for children who like monster stories. One of the best of the stories is the translation of Beowulf, which is actually quite a great story. Beowulf is a great one to read to kids having a sleepover or camping out. It has a great Chinese story about a great painter, an excellent story based on Frankenstein, and many other good ones including Jabberwocky (in original English, of course). The artwork is unique and very good.
