Nix, Garth

One Beastly Beast: (Two Aliens, Three Inventors, Four Fantastic Tales)

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Brian Biggs. These four short stories tell of resourceful children outwitting rats, aliens, and other beastly creatures. Nix's vivid imagination is here used to humorous effect. Featuring clever wordplay and unpredictable situations, the book is a solid choice for both reluctant and voracious readers. Biggs's heavy-lined cartoon illustrations composed of simple shapes add even more personality to Nix's silly creations.
