After Halloween BookMore Details
After Halloween is:

* About what the monsters of Halloween do to make a living AFTER Halloween
* 64 pages; full of Halloween monster goodness
* An alphabet book good for kids, but also adults
* Inspired by 1970's monster kulture, Edward Gorey, vintage Halloween, and classic animation
* Filled with odd, hardworking monsters from Daniel's imagination



"It's a children's alphabet book about what the monsters do to make a living after Halloween. It's all rhyming, it's charming and funny, and the illustrations are ridiculously awesome. In a world where everything -- especially children's books and stories -- are so mindnumbingly banal and similar, After Halloween is unique and wonderful."

KlawBerry Book KlawBerry Book

KlawBerry BookMore Details
The story is inspired by ancient mythology, Grimm Brothers fairytales, and folk stories from Africa, Europe, and India, all mashed together like a spicy red curry. It’s about a monster girl who finds strength and power in herself, as she makes a journey across the world. Grrlpower, literally.



The artwork is a mashup of Kawaii goodness, Saturday morning cartoons, and happy mascots from Japanese and American candy wrappers, ran through a goth filter. Inspired by Art Nouveau, toy design, and classic illustrated books, we wanted KlawBerry to look both fresh and modern, but as if you found it in a very old book.

* All ages, for people with a monster imagination
* Richly illustrated in full color
* Indie press: only 1500 were produced
* 48 pages

"I created this book for my son Kaid" said Daniel Davis, the artist and illustrator of Caught Creatures. "He's inherited my love of monsters and the desire to hunt them down and capture them for their monster gold."

"Though I wanted to make it for a kid, Caught Creatures isn't strictly a kid's book. It's full of references to old americana; video games, chopper bikes, old guitars, and vintage lighting. Most kids won't get it as much as their parents will... it's a wink and a nod to Gen X."
