This is something I did for my daughter's Lunch Notes, but, like the snailephant, I wanted to put it up here as well.
Seems like there's always a Monster King around when I get to telling adventures. For the Piggie story, there was a fuzzy Monster King. For the mermaid story, there's this scaly insectoid one. But every rollicking yarn needs a good Bad Guy.
Really nice watercolor and pen-and-ink work on this! And I agree about the bad guys. A friend of mine said she wished all kids stories were 'nice' and didn't have any bad guys in them. I couldn't disagree more. Hansel and Gretal without the witch? No big bad wolf or Wild Things?? No one would buy books because they'd be so boring!
