title: Pat the Zombie A Cruel (Adult) Spoof
authors: by Aaron Ximm, Illustrations by Kaveh Soofi
genre: zombies, adult spoof
published: ARC Available April 26, 2011
source: sent by publisher for review
first line: Here are Paul and Judy.
rated: nasty! yet fun....
In this soon-to-be classic, trusting toddlers Paul and Judy play peek-a-boo with a shroud, inhale the aroma of decomposing remains, check in the mirror for signs of infection, reach for Daddy’s putrefying face, and, of course, gut the Zombie! Grownup fans of the original will find all eight activities revoltingly re-imagined, with all their favorite touch-and-feel features creatively, yet sensitively, lampooned, as the undead come lurchingly back to life.
Creators Aaron Ximm and Kaveh Soofi, took the children's book Pat the Bunny and zombified it.
What fun this was!! I liked the 'scratch and sniff' part the best.
The book itself is small and it's interactive. You can 'feel daddy's putrefying face and you can 'gut the zombie' as you read along.
I think this makes a good collectors item for those who are fans of zombies and spoofs. It would also make a fun quirky gift for those who appreciate this type of humor. Warning: this one is not for weak stomachs.
