Disappointed Monsters is an A to Z of life's most disappointing and disheartening moments, manifested in the sort of monsters more commonly found inhabiting a graphic novel. Each letter introduces a daily setback, experienced by a crestfallen creature from the imagination of author and illustrator Eli Bowes. The book ranges from Alarm (a disappointed monster who wakes at 6.15 a.m. on a Saturday, having neglected to switch off his workday alarm) to Zip (a disappointed monster whose expensive hoodie has suffered a fastening malfunction) via an array of fantastically illustrated creatures sinking into everyday ennui due to flat-pack furniture, a bad first date, a hair-matted plughole or an empty toilet roll. Combining a witty, world-weary text with gloriously graphic illustrations, this is the perfect gift book for the disappointed monsters in your life.
