Pretty Ugly (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781662665271)

A hilariously quirky monster tale about appreciating beauty--in all its weird and wonderful forms!-- by the creator of the iconic Olivia books and bestselling humorist David Sedaris.

Sedaris and Falconer make a spectacular splash with this tale of a monster turned ugly--stuck with a human face!

In this beautifully gross picture book, Anna Van Ogre's lovely monster face turns into that of a sickeningly adorable, rosy-cheeked little girl--and it's not switching back! Can she find a way to stop looking like an ugly human and regain her gorgeous monstrosity of a face?

In this incredible story about beauty standards, owning your uniquessness, and developing self-esteem, nationally acclaimed comedian and perpetual bestelling author David Sedaris and renowned creator of the Olivia picture boook series Ian Falconer come together to ponder the eternally relevant question: is true beauty really on the inside?
