Bookroo's summary
The young monster barber returns, now a chef whose bizarre snacks attract aliens from across the galaxy. As spaceships line up for his culinary creations, will his fame soar or fizzle? Discover the humor and artistry in this interstellar adventure.
From the publisher
In the follow up to his breakout picture book, Even Monsters Need Haircuts, Matthew McElligott brings back the young monster barber in a new tale where his culinary concoctions bring him galaxy-wide fame. Creating snacks that make most humans queasy, this chef has found a new clientele–aliens. Readers will delight in McElligott’s gently offbeat humor and unique artistry as spaceships full of hilarious creatures line up for a taste of the intergalactic cuisine.
