WHAT LIBRARIANS AND BOOKSELLERS ARE SAYING ON NETGALLEY:
“There is no reason not to read this book.”
"I am an absolute Grinch at heart, but Mothman learning to 'believe in himself' makes the holiday cuteness tolerable."
“Hopefully Mothman will return one day with further adventures.”
“[One] of the cutest things I have ever read. I have a niece being born in a few weeks and she has two half siblings and guess what they’re getting for Christmas?”

Mothman’s MeRry Cryptid Christmas (CRYPTID HOLIDAY CLASSICS #1)
8th Circle Press (2023)
A heartwarming picture book for children and adults featuring everyone’s favorite flying cryptid from the New York Times bestselling author of How to Survive a Sharknado
Few have seen the West Virginia creature known as Mothman, but everyone agrees nothing good happens when he’s around—there always seems to be an accident or some other mishap. Is he really an unlucky charm? Even he’s unsure.
When Rudolph takes an unexpected vacation one foggy Christmas Eve, Santa Claus comes to Mothman with a request: “Mothman with your eyes so bright, won’t you guide my sleigh tonight?” Whether he saves Christmas or accidentally destroys it, one thing is for certain: the holidays will never be the same.
“A quirky holiday story with appeal for early elementary-aged readers curious about legendary creatures.” — SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL
