Little Monster Says Goodnight

Ages 3 to 5

A bedtime story for the little monster in all of us! Getting ready for bed is a blast in Little Monster Says Goodnight, thanks to a relatable kid monster who does things, well . . . just a little differently.

With Momster’s help, Little Monster gets ready for bed: he brushes his fangs (leaving gobs of fangpaste everywhere), enjoys some bedtime books (as in, he eats them), and asks his parents to check if there’s a monster under the bed (there is—good!). That’s right—even monsters must get ready for bed, and Little Monster's funny and familiar nighttime rituals will encourage all little monsters to go to sleep!

From celebrated author and illustrator David Slonim, this delightful bedtime read-aloud features rib-tickling scenes and colorful details on every page. Children who love (and even those who may be afraid of) monsters will ask for it again and again.

PERFECT FOR BEDTIME: This sweet and funny picture book hits the notes of nighttime, fear of the dark, and preparing kids for bed—all to help little readers get ready to say goodnight!

THERE'S A MONSTER IN MY BEDTIME BOOK: From the classic The Monster at the End of This Book to Pixar’s Monsters, Inc. to many of the Muppet cast of Sesame Street, monsters are a proven hit with kids and their parents, who will resonate with Little Monster and his monster parents, too!

CELEBRATES DIFFERENCE: Little Monster has bedtime rituals just like us—they just might be a bit different from the average kid’s! Learning about others is a good way to help overcome fear, offering kids an opportunity to practice putting themselves in other people’s (or monsters’!) shoes.
