Pacific Northwest Booksellers Association Book Award Shortlist Oregon Book Award Finalist “Thoroughly charming. A creature feature worthy of every child's nightly routine.” — Kirkus Reviews Bedtime routines are important for a good night's sleep—even for the monster under your bed!

A glass of water, a fan whirring gently, a story, and a song. Close your eyes. Time to sleep. But what if the monster under your bed can't fall asleep? How do you help it ?

Deceptively simple text skillfully captures the comfort young children take in routine, while colorful artwork—full of subtle detail—casts the monster as a friend and co-conspirator. Kerilynn Wilson's imaginative take on evergreen themes makes A Monstrous Bedtime a must-have for every bedtime. For fans of The Going to Bed Book, Everybody in the Red Brick Building, and Sleep Like a Tiger.
