Monsters, bears, wizards, and talking vegetables This book has something for everyone. Winner of the prestigious Baldersquash Medal, which honors the very best in highfalutin nonsense. Tim DeRoche and Daniel Gonzalez, author and illustrator of the best-selling Ballad of Huck & Miguel, return with a book of verse that will delight anyone who loves Lemony Snicket or Shel Silverstein.
