Lily Takes A Walk

Satoshi KitamuraClick here for biography

One of Kitamura's most admired works, LILY TAKES A WALK first came out in the 1980s and is now re-published with extra artwork and in a larger size.

When Lily takes a walk with her dog, Nicky, she notices many lovely things. But poor Nicky only sees monsters lurking in every corner. Which version of the walk is true, Lily's or Nicky's, or both?

There is just the right amount of horror to provide a thrill, but also the safety of realising that Nicky's visions are imaginary. Until a flap reveals a real surprise at the end!

Praise for this book:

'I used to have pretty bad nightmares when I was little, and this was a good bedtime read because I could confront my nightmare monsters through this book.' AMAZON REVIEW

'Nicky's nervous antics and his overactive imagination give this stroll a delicious scariness; inventive details on each page make this a walk well worth taking' PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
