It’s that time of year again! The time to run around dressed as a firefigher, a superhero, a supervillain, Walter White, Frankenstein’s monster, a zombie or (for the weirdos out there) a princess, demanding people to hand over their candy or be tricked until they surrender, muahahahaha!
It’s also the time of year to finally get your hands on the Sloth Volume of the Seven Deadly Sins Anthology! Today marks the release of the second book in our series. You can at last download —or for the dinosaurs amongst us— buy a copy made out of processed wood (!) of another marvelous collection of short stories. See below what’s in store for you if you do decide to read some great fiction along with helping children read more.
