Grumpfort -- Jamie Hammond, Paperback
"Worldbuilding reminiscent of How to Train Your Dragon is enriched by playful typography and lively b&w illustrations... Slapstick humor and timely lessons about questioning prejudice combine in this bustling jaunt." - Publishers Weekly
Meet Mo, the worst monster hunter ever, in this hilarious and highly illustrated adventure.
Mo never wanted to be a Warden - protecting the village of Bogfoss from the terrifying monsters in the woods is way too scary. But when he's beaten up by a goblin on his first patrol, he knows he has to prove himself. So he sets out into the forbidden woods to catch himself a monster and make himself a hero. Instead he stumbles into GRUMPFORT, a secret monster fortress with a very big problem. The fearsome Grumpsnatcher is kidnapping the other monsters - and suddenly Mo's on a monster-hunt with a troll, a gnome and a fire-breathing snotwoggle to stop it!
