The first volume of Little Books Series II is A Little Aqua Book of Creature Tales by David J. Schow! If you were a fan and collector of the original series of Little Books, you will definitely want these!

From the author's afterword: "There are a lot of strange references in this modest collection — everything from second-run art moviehouses to VHS rental stores — that will seem quaintly outdated to the modern reader. To me, in retrospect, the stories themselves seem almost wistful, romanticized but not nostalgic, since they were of their time and should not be tampered with to make them smell contemporary when they are not. Very little exploding-head splat aesthetic here. 'Monsters are what you'll find; the old-school creatures, and a possible answer to the question: Well, what happened to them after?'"

Included in this collection:
"One for the Horrors"
"Last Call for the Sons of Shock"
"(Melodrama)"
"Gills"
"Murder"
"The Incredibly Dinky Man"
"Afterword: Thirty Years of Monsters"
