My Monster Bubblewriter Book is an activity book to inspire and encourage creativity with both words and drawing. It teaches children how to create cool hand lettering, using their imaginations to create crazy alphabets--from monster-inspired scripts to patchwork letters.

It is monstrously good fun. Forlag: Laurence King Publishing Udgivelsesår: 2013 Sprog: Engelsk

In the colourful, accessible style of a master storyteller, Montefiore shows why these letters are essential reading: how they enlighten our past, enrich the
