Zombie in Love 2 + 1

Description

Mommy, Daddy, and a new baby makes three! A heartwarming-and hair-raising-tale of undead parenting from the bestselling author and illustrator of Zombie in Love, which Kirkus Reviews called "clever and delightfully gross." Happily married zombie couple Mortimer and Mildred are thrilled to be new parents. But having a baby isn't what they expected. Sonny hardly ever cries. His teeth are coming in instead of falling out. And worst of all, he's awake all day and sleeps through the night. Mortimer and Mildred are dead tired, and very worried. Will their precious baby boy ever behave like a good little monster? New York Times bestselling author Kelly DiPucchio and illustrator Scott Campbell team up once again to bring their lovable zombies the family they always wanted.
