The Problem with Not Being Scared of Monsters

Who knew the hidden problems that come with NOT being afraid of monsters?  Monsters think the boy is one of them and will not leave him alone!  They eat his cereal, ruin his homework, and wear his favorite pajamas.  When he finally reaches his breaking point, the boy introduces the pesky monsters to his younger brother and walks away – monster free.  The pen and ink illustrations are large, colorful, and fun.  This could be paired with Mo Willem’s Leonardo, the Terrible Monster or Amanda Noll’s I Need My Monster.  What fun to think of how monsters can be funny and/or irritating rather than scary.
