Emmy winning animator Mark Greene co-writes and illustrates this full color children's book about kids fears and the power of play. When the little girl across the street tells six year old Bernard there are flat witches in his bathroom, Bernard begins to worry… a lot. Then, one magical night, with the help of a fantastical new friend named Flatmunder, Bernard comes to better understand the chaotic and hilarious flat witches, eventually understanding that when we change the way we think about things, they change too… “Flatmunder has quickly become a favorite at bedtime. My children relate to Bernard and his feelings and enjoy his journey to independence. They giggle at something different every time, are fascinated by the wonderful illustrations and quote their favorite lines. What I like best is that, after we read, they ask questions, make comments, point out a new favorite page and always want to reread.” A.J. Vincent, Dad, NYC ThinkPlay Partners specializes in thinking about the world in innovative ways; by holding play, multiple frames, and the "not knowing" position as ways of staying mindful to what is miraculous and exciting in life.
