Vunce Upon a Time

A kids’ book about a vampire illustrated by J. Otto Seibold? Yes please!

I just snagged Vunce Upon a Time by Siobhan Vivian and J. Otto Seibold, and it’s pretty great. Seibold, the visual brain behind Olive the Other Reindeer and the oh-so-cute Mr. Lunch brings his inimitable manic style to the world of Halloween, and it’s pretty much just what you’d expect. The 2-page spread of a town of trick-or-treaters is like a Where’s Waldo? of monsters, creeps, and ghouls that’s worth the sticker price alone.

    Yeah, I just got that too (a few copies for some lucky rugrats, just in time for hallowe’en!)
    More textured/detailed than his previous books. I like it a lot!
