Nancy Willard, the auth of Pish Posh, is quite good I think. The book makes me cry now every time...AND it's gorgeous.
She flees to what appears to be her parent’s house. In the night she is awakened by some of the creatures who hid themselves in her suitcase. They beg her to look after them and the cook says, somewhat plaintively:
“They’re not what I wished for. When women are young They want curly-haired daughters and raven-haired sons. In this vale of tears we must take what we’re sent, Feather, leathery, lovely, or bent.”

Mercer Mayer's stuff also almost uniformly solid. always thought he did great monsters.
I first saw Mysteries of Harris Burdick and it was all I wanted to talk or think about for at least a week. My obsession had this additional layer of being in awe and in rage at the level of drawing skill. Just one more way it seemed...inhuman! Of course I loved it.
I had a similar obsession with the four weird books in one that is Black and White

Do you have Robert Munsch outside of Canada? I've also come to really like Sandra Boynton's books. We go to the library all the time, so I've kind of gotten over being super choosy about what books my oldest daughter gets. She picks whichever three books she wants, and if they're awful there's a built in exit strategy so it's easier to tolerate knowing there's a finite number nights I'll have to them.

― Mordy, Sunday, 17 June 2012 19:25 (eleven years ago) link
I don't have kids but I read it when I was a kid... found it a bit disturbing, but more because they want to BAKE HIM and all the illustrations of dough are kind of weird and scary and undulating, not because there's a penis. It's not a sexual image, and your daughter will learn about bodies at some point - she's probably seen you naked, right? It might spark some curiosity but it's not going to turn her into a rampant pervert or anything.

Comic books for 5-6 year olds?
It depends what they are into I'd say that Tintin and Asterix are no good as they are for older children and yeah, really old fashioned.
Baby Mouse (19 books and counting) by Matt and Jennifer HolmSquish (5 books and counting) also by the HolmsJohnny Boo (there's about 5 of them) by James KochalkaDragon Puncher/Dragon Puncher Island - James Kochalka - hilariousComics Squad Recess! - a compliation with the Holms, Dav Pilkey and othersThe Flying Beaver Brothers books by Maxwell EatonOttos Orange Day/Ottos Backwards Day by Frank Cammuso and Jay Lynch^ Those are published by Toon Books who do tons of great comic books for ages 4-8. Defintely check them out. Captain Underpants obviously though it's not really a comic book but Super Diaper Baby is and lots of others by Dav Pilkey.
There's old favs like the Smurfs and Garfield who have newer, more modern comic books for younger kids. Theres a killer Wizard of Oz series but probably for older kids.
I have others which I can't remember right now. My children are voracious comic book readers. Our central library has a huge selection so we just go and get about 20 every week.

my 4yo for a book of fairy tales and she asked me to read her hansel and gretl which i did and even tho i knew how much disturbing material was in it i was still a little taken aback. the wife is frank about wanting to ditch her kids in the forest (and we had an interesting conversation about why she isn't called their mother but her husband is called their father), the dad resists but ultimately she nags him into essentially abandoning his children for death. of course the witch tries to cannibalize both of the children, not to mention that the entire story takes place against a background of terrible deprivation + acute poverty. but i've read scholars who believe that the gruesomeness was necessary (bettelheim particularly iirc) for kids to process complicated details about the world and themselves. and my daughter loved it so much she wanted me to immediately read it again (despite it being a fairly lengthy story). she had a lot of questions too and she found the cannibalism elements hilarious. she also noted without my prodding that the witch was obviously the wife from the beginning and i kvelled bc i agree that it is the subtext - psychologically if not literally attributable to the text - and i think it was a v astute observation.
