SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR
Stitch Head was the first creation to be born--and the first to be forgotten.
He's the adorably monstrous creation of Professor Erasmus Erasmus, a man who has breathed life into over three hundred creatures with all manner of fangs, tails, and eyes. But as good as Erasmus is at giving life, he's equally bad at taking care of it. And so the duty falls to Stitch Head to ensure his siblings don't tear Castle Grotteskew apart.
Despite having a handle on the threats within the castle, however, no one is prepared for Fulbert--the conniving ringleader of a traveling circus of wonders and oddities--to show up at Grotteskew's front door. He offers Stitch Head a new chance at family--one that will make him known by the whole world and forgotten by no one.
The terms of Fulbert's deal may be glowing, but there's something dark lurking behind his eyes. As Stitch Head will learn, not every monster is a meanie...and some seemingly normal folk can be the nastiest beasts of all!
