Bookroo's summary

In the land of Nightmare, gentle swamp creature Johnny Slimeseed dreams of a world where monsters play instead of scare. His plan? Plant oozy slime trees to distract his ghoulish neighbors. As Johnny sows seeds of change, will his vision of a playful, fear-free forest come to life, or will the monsters' old habits die hard? Dive into this twisted folktale adventure and discover if Johnny's slimy dream can transform his world.

From the publisher

Little Johnny Slimeseed isn’t like the other monsters living in Nightmare. The gentle swamp creature hates scaring human kids and wishes his fellow ghouls would find another hobby. So he comes up with a brilliant plan–fill the land with oozy, goopy slime trees! If he can plant enough seeds, the monsters won’t frighten anyone because they’ll be too busy having fun in the sludge! Can Johnny achieve his freaky forest dream? In this Far Out Folktale, the story of famous American pioneer Johnny Appleseed gets twisted about to create an exciting graphic novel adventure for kids.
