The Gashlycrumb Tinies, or, After the Outing

The perfectly creepy, amusing book that inspired Tim Burton, Neil Gaiman and Guillermo Del Toro. A is for AMY who fell down the stairs B is for BASIL assaulted by bears C is for CLARA who wasted away... ... and so it goes on, an A to Z of poor little orphans and their untimely ends. (Right up to the unfortunate ZILLA, who simply drank too much gin.) This collector's edition of Edward Gorey's pocket-sized masterpiece comes in a special slipcase with ribbon.
