💜 I never thought I’d write a children’s book about monsters. But one day, while I was doing chores around the house, these lines just popped into my head:
‘Twas a night like no other:
a cold and moonless night
In that instant, I knew there was a story brewing. I started writing and soon found out it was going to be about monsters coming out of the woods one cold and moonless night. Was this going to be a spooky story? Not at all. These monsters turned out to be silly and bumbling—the kind of monsters that delivered equal amounts of shivers and giggles.
💜 The Night the Monsters Came will inspire children to practice healthy hygiene habits at bedtime as well as empower them to overcome their fear of monsters.
