Molly & Nightmare

Angebote / Angebote:

An unusual friendship between Molly and her monster, Nightmare, who learn to love one another over the course of an entire lifetime. When Molly dies a very old woman, Nightmare is forced to face his grief and move on. Molly is a young girl with far too many bullies. What she needs is a friend - a big one with fur, fangs, and terrible claws. Unfortunately, what she gets is Nightmare, an argumentative creature who seems put off by the notion that he will be a little girl's sidekick. "To be my monster. I'm going to take you to school, like show and tell, but every day." "That's against monster rule #1, " Nightmare says. "I hide in closets, under beds, rattle windows, that sort of thing. No one can see me unless they call for a monster. Which is rare, I should tell you." Despite their differences, the two develop a loyal friendship that spans Molly's entire life. "Molly grows as years swirl and blend and pass. Nightmare watches rain the color of steel. Clouds the color of marshmallows. Sunlight the color of Molly's bows." "Nightmare stares at his claws. They are not painted .He tucks himself under her bed at night. Molly's hair turns white and grey. When Molly passes away, Nightmare is lost and alone. What does an imaginary friend do when the person that needed them is gone? Molly & Nightmare deals with the complicated emotions surrounding the loss of a loved one but told in a humorous, accessible way. The illustrations by David Spencer perfectly capture this unique friendship and the sadness when Molly passes. With bright colors and hard, dark lines, the art will remind a lot of children of their favorite animated series. Will Nightmare find a way to move on? Will there be a new friend for him to love in the future?
