Illumination's Minions—now retold in a classic Little Golden Book!

Kevin, Stuart, Bob, and all of the Minions we first met in Despicable Me return in this new Little Golden Book retelling of Illumination's hit movie Minions—perfect for boys and girls ages 3 to 5 and fans of all ages!

The Minions have served the most despicable master they can find since the dawn of time, sometimes to the detriment of the villains themselves. Three Minions—brave Kevin, guitar-playing Stuart, and lovable Bob—venture out to Villain-Con to find a new boss to serve.

There they meet the infamous Scarlet Overkill, and so begins the humorous and heartwarming adventure of saving their tribe and finding the best evil boss of all time.
