When Monster (who lives under the bed) meets Boy (who sleeps in the bed), Boy starts to scream - and Monster promptly swallows him. It's the beginning of a beautiful friendship! Told with a warm, cosy voice, the story is brought to life with adorable illustrations. Filled with adventure and humour, this chapter book is perfect for sharing with kids just aging out of picture books and for newly independent readers.

This is the beginning of an exciting two-color illustrated chapter book series about the friendship between Monster and Boy, perfect for fans of Shannon Hale's Princess in Black!
