The Gigantic Beard That Was Evil
Stephen Collins
<p>NOW A <span>NEW YORK TIMES</span> BESTSELLER<br><br>* The job of the skin is to keep it all in...<br><br>* On the island of Here, livin's easy. Conduct is orderly. Lawns are neat. Citizens are clean shaven-and Dave is the most fastidious of them all. Dave is bald, but for a single hair. He loves drawing, his desk job, and the Bangles. But on one fateful day, his life is upended...by an unstoppable (yet pretty impressive) beard. </p><p>An off-beat fable worthy of Roald Dahl and Tim Burton, Stephen Collins' <em>The Gigantic Beard That Was Evil</em> is a darkly funny meditation on life, death, and what it means to be different--and a timeless ode to the art of beard maintenance. **</p>
