About this item
Kate has a problem. She's terrified of her aunt's big bulldog. Kate's aunt calls the dog Cookie. Kate calls it a monster! One day, after fleeing the apartment to escape Cookie, Kate takes the strangest elevator ride ever--complete with a mysterious package and floor after floor of real-life monsters! It takes all of her courage, but Kate soon finds that the monsters aren't so scary after all. Kate makes some new friends, and she discovers the perfect way to tame her own personal beast. This warmly written, beautifully illustrated book is certain to be a favorite among all children (and adults) who have been afraid at one time or another.
About the Author
Hello! I'm Jacob Grant and I make picture books. Absurd and heartfelt picture books.
Originally from Ohio, I now live with my wife in a very windy city in Illinois. Day and night I can be found in my home studio, drawing, painting and writing until something feels story-ish.
My debut picture book, Scaredy Kate, was released by Barron's in April 2014. Feiwel and Friends at Macmillan will be publishing my next 2 books, Little Bird's Bad Word in summer 2015, followed by Cat Knit in fall 2016.
