I bought this really interesting book by Gou Tanabe called "H.P. Lovecraft's The Hound and Other Stories."

Tanabe is a Japanese artist who makes illustrated versions of many of H.P. Lovecraft's works. The art is incredible and so realistic looking. It makes visualizing all of Lovecraft's stories so awesome!

Don't get me wrong, though. This is not a children's novel by any means. And it is not manga/anime despite him being a Japanese artist -- although it is in black & white (but I think you get a more dramatic effect that way).
