What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

I’m Professor LeGrand, of LeGrand University–the world’s foremost expert on monster diversity. Some monsters are charming; as guests they’re enjoyed. But the ones I’ll describe are best to avoid.Come along with Professor LeGrand as he warns readers about the outrageous habits and appalling behavior of thirteen mischievous monsters whom the creature teacher hopes the readers never have to meet. There’s the Scarce Sissyfoos, the Mess Monsters, the Hedge-Standing Snits, and many more! Author Kevin Shortsleeve’s humorous rhymes and Illustrator Michael Austin’s eerie monster caricatures work in perfect harmony and to capture the attention of young readers. This fiendishly fun story will be a read-aloud favorite for all members of the family.
