Go to Sleep, Monster!

Kevin Cornell, illustrated by Kevin Cornell

Two siblings discover that monsters can be frightened, reversing the usual idea of a monster lurking beneath a child's bed. George is difficult to settle at bedtime, but the children also face the challenge of getting a monster to sleep. The nighttime adventure involves several distinct creatures, shown with blue and purple coloring interrupted by bursts of light. It turns a familiar bedtime fear into a situation where the monster needs reassurance too.
