The Shy Little Monster began as a children's song created by Stephanie Leavell. Stephanie - a mom, music educator, and Berklee-trained music therapist - wanted to create a sweet and silly (not scary!) Halloween song that would delight her preschool music groups. Illustrator Sarah Pilar Echeverria and Stephanie are friends (they were born on the same day, in the same hospital, but became friends much later!) who bonded over their love of creating. Sarah is a mom of two with a lifelong passion for art and an everlasting love for children's books. She hopes her own illustrations can spark excitement and creativity in kids. This book shows kids that it's okay to be shy (so are Stephanie and Sarah!), it's okay to ask for help and, most importantly, good friends are always there to offer some encouragement and help you find your voice.

As a fairy tale writer, Gavin empowers his protagonists with magic. In real life, he longs to deploy it and wishes to believe in it doubtlessly as his young readers do. He believes his wife has got lost in the Fairyland he creates. He is obsessed to find her there and bring her back. One day, absent-mindedly or desirably he writes his protagonist, Long, out from ancient China through the power of a magic feather he created for this poor painter. Gavin borrows the feather and enters into his imagined story world. Long discovers the power to write someone’s fate and has got his chance. But both men are now trapped in a place they don’t belong. Two different worlds, different adventures they are going to experience but it is the inspiration from the same person – Zoe, Gavin’s eight year old daughter that rescues them, body and mind.

An all new original graphic novel packed with as much heart as epic combat from rising comic stars Juni Ba (Djeliya, Monkey Meat) and Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou (PanelxPanel)! Join a brave young monster and their grouchy mentor on a heartfelt quest for redemption and growth in a world run by fear. Felix is a shy little beast growing up in a world where monster wrestling is the biggest spectacle there is. Lonely, and constantly bullied by the bigger monsters his age, Felix struggles to prove themselves and find their place in the world. Their fate is changed forever when a dare lands them on the doorstep of one of the scariest monsters in the whole world— Macabber Tails, one of the most famous monstering champions in history. Felix wants to be big and brave and strong and tough, just like Macabber, and so they decide to do whatever it takes to not be a fraidy little monster anymore. Their unlikely journey together sends them to Macabber's hometown, to the mountains of the colossal flame-wielding Kilnver—a monster able to make an army of knights out of just its own saliva—and to the lair of the dastardly Amaret, the monster that made Macabber the champion they are today. Together they face some battles for their life, but not always in ways that are physical and by the end, Felix and Macabber may learn a thing or two about being tough.
