About This Item
Very good first edition with no dust jacket as issued. Interior pages are clean with no marks, some signs of light creasing to some pages. Spine is tight. Hard cover shows signs of shelfwear, some rubbing at corners, and a one-inch scratch to back cover at upper left. Oblong, decorative boards, illustrated in black and white.
From the creator of the hugely successful It’s Happy Bunny franchise comes a little piece of work named Cherise, who may be, it turns out, a not-so-nice niece. In the tradition of Edward Gorey’s The Gashlycrumb Tinies, Jim Benton’s first adult picture book, with hilarious rhymes and illustrations, is a darkly comic masterpiece of the macabre.
