Even Monsters Say Goodnight

It's bedtime, and Amy hates bedtime. She is positive that there are monsters under her bed, especially on Halloween. Where else would all of those monsters sleep? After a thorough discussion with her mum about the monster situation, Amy finally goes to her room. Does she dare check under the bed? A mix of story text and speech bubbles blend seamlessly in this humorous bedtime tale that both parents and children will relate to.

Rhyming text describes a mother guiding her young monster through bedtime preparations, such as howling at the moon, snacking on worm juice and beetle bread, and choosing a bedtime story.

Bedtime means brushing your teeth, putting on pajamas, snuggling, and kissing your family goodnight. For monsters, bedtime looks a little different. They brush their teeth, but not with a toothbrush. They get dressed for bed, but not in slippers and nightcaps. They snuggle, but not with a blankie or a teddy bear. Monsters Go Night-Night takes readers through the bedtime rituals of seven friendly monsters while making each step of the routine a guessing game. Getting ready for bed has never been so much fun!

When my children were young after we had said our prayers for the night, sometimes they would be a little scared. So, we would scare the monsters away with this little saying. We would look around the bedroom, check the closet and of course under the bed. We would wave to the imaginary monsters as they left the bedroom. Every night as I would leave their bedroom, I would say goodnight, sweet dreams, I love you. My children are grown now but every once and a while at night I will send out a Text telling them good night, sweet dreams, I love you.
