Postcards from a City of Monsters

A finely-told, full-color illustrated book about childhood cancer

WOULD YOU LIKE TO FLY WITH A GARGOYLE?

Toby didn’t ask to move halfway around the world to the Czech Republic with his mom and step-mom. He certainly didn’t ask to get sick.

But now, at the start of fifth grade, Toby finds himself being treated for cancer in a hospital far from his friends and familiar surroundings. He starts feeling trapped until a strange creature offers him an escape.

A feline-shaped gargoyle has come to life! All Toby has to do is step through the window.

Follow Toby on his night of adventure as he flies over enchanting Prague with his gargoyle guide, and learns he's not alone at all.

Written by author Sherri Cook Woosley, and illustrated by artist Elena Moroz, Postcards from a City of Monsters is part of Improbable Press' “Postcards” series, an imaginative fantasy set talking about issues important to kids, and which includes Postcards from a Lake Monster, a book about autism.
