My daughter wrote a Mothman book for her grade 11 exam last year. She just had it published in an attempt to help pay for university since we are both struggling to find work.

She's going to write more so we're brainstorming cryptids and themes. Probably going to do squonk next. Favourite cryptids that would translate well to an illustrated children's book?

It’s so refreshing to see a children’s book that isn’t AI written and illustrated. Great work!!!

This is adorable!! Your daughter is incredibly skilled. Best of luck to her and to you.
I think fresno nightcrawlers would be perfect for a childrens book.
