Laika Entertainment has optioned the rights to Alan Snow\'s best-selling British children\'s novel Here Be Monsters for its next animated feature, to be overseen by Henry Selick, according to the Hollywood Reporter. The story follows a young boy who tries to save his town from a dastardly takeover plot. \"Monsters\" was purchased for an undisclosed six-figure sum by Laika after the animation boutique successfully outbid competing international studios for film rights to the book.
