FROM PUBLISHER'S WEEKLY: Paradis and Drouot take readers on a whimsical tour of the Big Apple in 10 scenes devoted to the city's landmarks and highlights, while simultaneously asking them to locate small (and not-so-small) monsters hidden throughout. The text offers a taste of city life, but the chief source of the book's fun comes from the visual variety of the monsters Drouot includes in her carefully detailed artwork, and the clever ways she hides them: these monsters can be seen driving taxis, blending in with leafy green trees, and looking a lot like typical Times Square tourists--if not for the tusks and tentacles that give them away. Simultaneously available: Chicago Monsters and San Francisco Monsters.
