Things you should be afraid of…clowns made from socks! plus giveaway

Brenna Maloney has done it again.  Her latest book, Sock it to Me, Creepy, Crazy & Strangely Appealing, 16 Projects Sewn from Socks.  Is a sock drawer buster.  Brenna did a book signing at BEA (Book Expo America) and she had a line all the way down the aisle, people waited for 20 minutes to get a signed copy and a picture with our larger than life sock creatures.

What I hate? Her sock clowns are the creepiest things I have ever seen, and I have a son who likes to show me gross stuff.  I personally have always been afraid of clowns and tried my hardest to keep THEM off the back cover of the book, they seemed to have been printed there anyway…Yuck.

What I love? The bats, they make me smile every time I see them.  The bad guys, you want them to get away with it, you just do.  And the adorably angry snowman assassins.  Those guys really know how to throw a snowball so it hurts.  So run, don’t walk to your closest book buying outlet and grab a copy of this book to scare and delight you.
