I consider Patrick McDonnell one the best comic strip artists working today. In addition to his daily Mutts strip, he also does the occasional children's book. This year, he released The Monsters' Monster just in time for the Halloween season. It may look like a little kid's book, but it can be enjoyed by all-ages. Case in point: I haven't had this much fun reading a monster book since The Monster at the End of This Book, and that's high praise considering I placed the latter in my Top Five Spooky Books of All-Time - a list I still stand by. I stand by this book, too! If only the cover price were cheaper so I could afford to give it out to all the Trick-or-Treaters on Halloween night.
