Zogg: The Cuddly Menace is a reinterpretation of the illustrated children's book My Little Golden Book About God, [1] in which the original text is replaced with a science fiction horror story resembling Invasion of the Body Snatchers. The author's introduction describes his discovery of the book on sale in a supermarket, and his reaction to it:
You cannot imagine my horror, however, when my eyes met pages filled with saccharine, pastel artwork depicting cold-eyed androids that were clearly not of our realm. In a Beautiful Mind moment of schizophrenic clarity I saw the book for what it was: not a gentle introduction to life's most profound curiosity, but a primer for the parasitic offspring of an invisible invasion!
For the safety of our race (if any still remain) I have translated this book in the hopes that a resistance may arise. [2]
The story is online as a series of illustrations and as an animated story.
