Bookroo's summary

A young girl, tucked in bed, wonders if the monsters she imagines are truly frightening. Instead of hiding, she asks playful questions about their lives, like if Dracula flosses or if the boogeyman has boogers. With each question, her fear diminishes, revealing that her imagination is more powerful than any monster. This delightful tale offers laughter and comfort, ensuring a peaceful night's sleep.

From the publisher

In this monstrously funny picture book, an inquisitive young girl with some pressing questions proves these creatures may not be so scary after all.

Tucked up in her bed, a little girl wonders about the creatures rumored to go bump in the night. But instead of pulling the covers over her head, she comes up with a list of important questions, like:

Does Frankenstein get hungry?

Does Dracula floss his fangs?

Does the boogeyman have boogers?

Does the thing that lives beneath my bed get lonely under there?

With each inquiry, the little girl’s confidence grows–proving monsters are no match for her imagination! From debut talent John Solimine, this laugh-out-loud picture book has all the silly and gentle reassurance kids need for a good night’s sleep.
