Did anyone else have this book growing up? I got it one Xmas & was obsessed. I’m sure it’s still buried somewhere in the attic, though I couldn’t find it last time I looked. Kids (or at least, this kid 😂) have such a weird fascination with the morbid & grotesque. Some of the images still haunt me...
