Hugo Sprouts is a fantastic tale about a boy frustrated with being small. Luckily, Hugo P. Sprouts is a mad scientist and determined to find a solution. . . In his lab, Hugo develops a potion and finally becomes the biggest kid in town-but also the biggest jerk around. Hugo has great power, but will he learn responsibility before it' s too late John Loren' s rhyming, invention-gone-wrong picture book is a silly, fun read-aloud full of heart. This madcap tale of a whiz-kid was partly inspired by the struggle of good and evil in Stevenson' s classic Jekyll and Hyde, with a little scoop of Godzilla for good measure. Hugo Sprouts and the Strange Case of the Beans is a celebration of curiosity and ingenuity that fans ofAndrea Beaty' s Rosie Revere, Engineerand Chris Van Dusen' s If I Built a Car will love.
John Loren was constructed in Maine by mad scientists masquerading as his parents. Now he is a freelance author and illustrator whose work spans video games, comics, and animation. He loves Halloween and he looks pretty good in earmuffs. FRANKENSTEIN DOESN' T WEAR EARMUFFS! is Loren' s first picture book.
