T is for Torture

Adult; Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Horror; (Market)

What better way to learn about historical methods of torture than through laughable cartoons? For fans of Go the Fck to Sleep and The Gashlycrumb Tinies, T is for Torture is a parody ABC book for those with a darker sense of humor. Profane and satirical, Author Marie Lestrange pairs offensively hilarious rhymes with horrifying, yet endearing, illustrations as she teaches you about medieval torture methods from A to Z. Please Note: This book is for entertainment purposes only- it is not an instruction manual. T is for Torture is the perfect read for your friends that love Horror, True Crime, and History, and a hysterical gag gift for those that don't! The Little Lestrange book series is written for adults, and possibly teens- with the exception of those with dubious intent. PERFECT FOR: Wednesday Addams Horror fans True Crime fanatics Goths (especially Goth Baby) With each page, this absurd and twisted take on the ABCs invites conversation about the history of crime, torture, and differing societal standards regarding corporal punishment. Again, while visually deceptive as a children's picture book, this work is strictly for a mature audience due to the explicit (yet hilarious) content. Coming Soon in the Little Lestrange Series: S is for Serial Killers C is for Cannibalism A is for Asylum

"This book is for entertainment purposes only. It is not meant to be used as an instruction manuel." Made me lol, so five stars for that alone...
Additional notes include:
Cute and macabre illustrations
It rhymes!!!
"Welcome disorderly women" +1 for historical accuracy, sad but true
The ending is clever and funny!

T is for Torture is one part adorable, one part terrifying, and the most fun I've had reading a picture book since GO THE F*CK TO SLEEP. The art is cutesy and creepy, The Little Lestrange's vibrant purple hair popping off the page. An excellent collectible to pull out at parties to entertain your friends (dramatic reading, anyone?) and scare off the lily-livered. Highly recommended!

ABC's for adults.. okay, adults who enjoy horror! This was a fun and super quirky little picture book. It gave me a giggle, and I'm definitely keeping my eyes peeled for more of these!

What's not to love about an adorable, curly haired cutie taking you on a tour of the most gruesome torture devices throughout history? Plenty here to keep you both laughing and cringing! A fun little book to give to your favorite silly/spooky friend.

Don't even get me started on the curly haired rep in picture books! MORE PLEASE!
