Book Description

Biggest Little Stories(tm) turns children's imaginative, made-up stories into fun animated videos. Volume One of The BIG Book of Little Stories is a collection of seven stories told by kids. Children's imaginations take us into a world with purple unicorns, wizards, and dragons. We spend a day at the beach with Laila, fly into outer space with monkeys, and run into big bad wolves... who turn out to be pretty friendly in the end. Biggest Little Stories(tm) started when Shelby illustrated one of her nephew's hilarious and creative stories (The Big Bad Wolves by Blake, age 3). It was a fun and unique way to express his story through animation. We realized this would be a great opportunity for all children to share their fun and creative stories with the world. Our mission is to capture the imaginations of children and bring their playtime stories to life, so they can be shared and enjoyed by parents and children everywhere.

These spectral stories span more than a hundred years, from modern-day horrors by Joyce Carol Oates, Chet Williamson and Andrew Klavan, to pulp yarns from August Derleth, Greye La Spina, and M. L. Humphreys, to the atmospheric Victorian tales of Rudyard Kipling, Edith Wharton, and H. P. Lovecraft, not to mention modern works by the likes of Donald E. Westlake and Isaac Asimov that are already classics. Some of these stories have haunted the canon for a century, while others are making their first ghoulish appearance in book form. Whether you prefer possessive poltergeists, awful apparitions, or friendly phantoms, these stories are guaranteed to thrill you, tingle the spine, or tickle the funny bone, and keep you turning the pages with fearful delight. Including such classics as “The Monkey’s Paw” and “The Open Window” and eerie vintage illustrations, and also featuring haunted mansions, midnight frights, lovers from beyond the grave, rapping, tapping, wailing shades, and ghosts, ghouls, and specters galore!
