“This rhyming bedtime picture book is a witty, tender mix of the adorable and the appalling.” - The Guardian
“All creatures grim and evil, under the tired sun, are settling down - and so must you, my horrible little one…”
It’s time to go to bed, and whether you are a phantom, a vampire, a Dark Lord or a yeti, you still must brush your teeth, put on your pyjamas, and settle down with a cosy story.
"Your duvet is soft and slimy.
Your pillow is lovely and damp.
Cuddle in close with a book (or three).
We'll read by the light of the lamp."
Full of warmth and humour (and slime!) this rhyming bedtime book will disgust and delight sleepy little monsters everywhere.
Welsh author, illustrator and graphic novelist Aaron has flipped the traditional bedtime story on its head to create a delightfully different rhyming tale about child monsters and villains settling down for the night. But, rather than causing a fright, it brims with just the right amount of loving cosiness to help mini humans drift off. * Observer *
Featuring a catalogue of sleepy monsters from cyborg to yeti, winding down alongside the cute little blob of the title, this rhyming bedtime picture book is a witty, tender mix of the adorable and the appalling. * Guardian *
Witty and wholly original ... this (is) a delicious monster-y tale * The Bookseller *
