Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Goodnight monsters everywhere, in this parody romp with its own special twist!

"Goodnight tomb. Goodnight goon. Goodnight Martians taking over the moon."

It's bedtime in the cold gray tomb with a black lagoon, and two slimy claws, and a couple of jaws, and a skull and a shoe and a pot full of goo. But as a little werewolf settles down, in comes the Goon determined at all costs to run amok and not let any monster have his rest.

A beloved classic gets a kind-hearted send up in this utterly monsterized parody; energetic art and a hilarious text will have kids begging to read this again and again.

About the Author

Michael Rex has written and illustrated nineteen books for children. He's a big fan of Margaret- Wise Brown and Clement Hurd's Goodnight Moon, but feels it is severely lacking monsters with sharp teeth, and small creatures in peril. The author lives in the Bronx, New York.
