What's The Buzz?

"Haunting lyrics and spine-chilling music make this hair-raising collection frightfully fun."-Barry Bodies, ROLLING BONES

 "...bloody brilliant!" -Ima Biter, THE TRANSYLVANIA TIMES

"Dreadful. Appalling. Hideous. Loved it!" -Simon Howl, MONSTER IDOL

"Ah….fall is here! It’s the perfect time of year for roasting hot dogs and marshmallows over a campfire. As soon as the last s’more is gone, it’s time to gather with your favorite monsters to howl a verse or two of the classic "99 Bottles of Blood on the Wall". Or maybe "For He’s a Stinky Old Fellow" followed by "Do Your Guts Hang Low?"" - Missouri Reading

 "Monsters sing about gross and macabre things and the detailed images -- of rotting, creepy things with bulging eyes -- will probably be disturbing for the usual picture book crowd. " - Common Sense Media

"A full complement of 18 songs rewritten for maximum horrifying effect means there's a new chance to get completely grossed out on every single page. " - The Imperfect Parent

 "Perfect for kids who like a little bit of scary with a whole lot of giggles." - Three Silly Chicks

"Ghastly illustrations filled with grime and gore accompany each song. The drawings are so real you can almost feel the slime." - BookHive
