About Little Cthulhu’s Breakfast Time:
A Lovecraft-inspired picture book for little monsters
A monstrous morning goes adorably wrong!
Deep in the sunken city of R’lyeh, Little Cthulhu wakes up early—and very hungry. But breakfast isn’t easy when your cereal floats away, your toast deflates with a squelch, and your smoothie explodes in a glowing mess!
Luckily, his sea-creature friends arrive to help—with bubbles, giggles, and lots of tentacles. And just as the table is set, even sleepy Dad Cthulhu drifts in to sniff the seaweed pancakes.
This beautifully illustrated picture book blends heartwarming humor with a splash of cosmic weirdness. Perfect for fans of funny monster stories, silly food adventures, and Lovecraftian whimsy.
Great for bedtime snuggles, classroom read-alouds, or independent early readers.
