"This fresh concept invites budding botanists to see nature in a verdantly imaginative light." – Booklist

"This creative guide leads you to monstrously fun discoveries in the names, histories and appearances of 20 common and treasured flowers." – YA Books Central

"Monstrously original!" – Swiss Public Broadcasting
"A fun premise, and youngsters will likely find both her taste for gross details and her closing guidelines for creating yet more floral monsters entertaining." – Kirkus Reviews
While spending time in the countryside during lockdown, Claire Le Men developed a passion for flowers. But the fertile imagination of this Paris-born author and illustrator soon got the better of her and, inspired by the work of Léopold Chauveau, transformed the flowers that are the pride of our gardens into endearing little monsters. If Flowers Were Little Monsters is her first book for children. She lives in Brittany.
