STATEN ISLAND, NY November 5, 2006 -- Monstrous Mansions by
Laura Simmons is a delightful, original children's book that explores a
pressing environmental issue: suburban sprawl. When John and Bob Smith appear before a Town Hall Meeting to protest turning their neighborhood into a commercial zone, no one suspects that they are really Von Droggle and Bendraggle, two extraterrestrials who are committed to saving Earth's resources. With wit, zest, and stunning full-color illustrations, Simmons reveals that people aren't always what they seem—sometimes they are much more magical than you ever imagined. |
