An Illustrated Compendium of London Monsters

I had this idea about doing a book of London monster poems for children - they have a bit of a mix of tone at the moment and obviously kids won't get some of the reference, but might rejig them all to be kid-friendly... I want to do a range of illustrations to go with them...

Hey Caribou,

I think your ideas are really interesting. I particularly enjoyed 'The Sandwich monster' and 'Veggie Monster'. I think the language of 'Veggie' is the most appropriate to children and similarly I think that 'Swamp Monster' needs to be edited to remove the profanity as it dilutes the group of poems as a whole. Keep going though, it will be interesting to see more of a similar vein.
