I don’t post a lot of picture books here, but seeing how it’s spooky season, I thought I would mention The Slightly Spooky Tale of Fox and Mole by Swedish illustrator Cecilia Heikkilä, published by Floris Books, which just landed on my desk at work. It’s an appropriately autumnal and windswept story about a dark and scuffling monster that emerges from the moor after Mole takes his friendship with his neighbour Fox for granted. As you can see below, the illustrations are wonderful and although things get a little scary in the middle, it all works out in the end.
