Book description

Once upon a badtime...
In these explosive, hysterical comics, Dr Jeykll and Mr Snide, Little Miss Muffet and Little Red Riding Hood run wild in chaotic retellings of beloved tales. These anarchic, frenzied comics stories from the pen of Leo Baxendale are the arguably the jewel of the British humour…

Why read it?

1 author picked Badtime Bedtime Stories as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

These comics are very much of a particular time and place (1970s England), but that’s also part of what makes them so strange and funny to my son. Almost like a cross between Monty Python, Roald Dahl, and Mad magazine. Lots of little jokes and details, bad puns, and all kinds of goofy weirdness.
