If Your Monster Won’t Go to Bed by Denis
Vega and Zachariah Ohora (2017)
When it comes to putting monsters to bed, don’t rely on
parents—they’re no help with it comes to monsters. A series of tongue-in-cheek
do’s and don’ts for getting your unruly monster off to bed include many asides
and some body humor that will induce giggles with older listeners. Good for
class visits and storytimes with older readers.
Themes/topics: monsters, bedtime, humor
Sample text from two spreads:
Step 6: In the key
of screech, sing “Shock-a-Bye, Monster” and listen to those gigantic monster snores
(along with the snores of your family and maybe even the whole block!).
Congratulations,
you’ve done it! Your monster has officially gone to bed. You are the Master of
Monsters, the Captain of Creatures, the Baron(ess) of Boogie Men! You’re so
good, everyone in the neighborhood will start asking you to help with their monsters.
