Mothman’s MeRry Cryptid Christmas (CRYPTID HOLIDAY CLASSICS #1)

8th Circle Press (2023)

A heartwarming picture book for children and adults featuring everyone’s favorite flying cryptid from the New York Times bestselling author of How to Survive a Sharknado

Few have seen the West Virginia creature known as Mothman, but everyone agrees nothing good happens when he’s around—there always seems to be an accident or some other mishap. Is he really an unlucky charm? Even he’s unsure.

When Rudolph takes an unexpected vacation one foggy Christmas Eve, Santa Claus comes to Mothman with a request: “Mothman with your eyes so bright, won’t you guide my sleigh tonight?” Whether he saves Christmas or accidentally destroys it, one thing is for certain: the holidays will never be the same.

“A quirky holiday story with appeal for early elementary-aged readers curious about legendary creatures.” — SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL

“A charming story for those who want to believe.” — DOOGIE HORNER, A Die Hard Christmas
