2017 Literary Classics Book Awards 2017 PNBA Long-List When Ethan looks under the bed for his monster, he finds this note instead: "So long, kid. Gotta go. Someone needs me more than you do. -Gabe" How will Ethan ever get to sleep without his monster's familiar, comforting snorts? And who could need Gabe more than Ethan does? Gabe must have gone to Ethan's little sister's room! She has been climbing out of bed every night to play, and obviously needs a monster to help her get to sleep - but not HIS monster!

Just when it seems that Ethan will lose his monster forever, an uninvited, tutu-toting little monster full of frightening fun apĀpears. Following in the spooky-silly tradition of I Need My MonĀster, here's another irresistible monster-under-the-bed story with the perfect balance of giggles and shivers.

Critical Reviews
"The . . . monsters in McWilliam's toy-strewn bedroom scenes are show stealers, whether exuding pools of pink slime or rearing up in glowering, warty menace in vain efforts to get Emma into bed." --Kirkus Reviews
"[It] is a wonderfully creative and entirely fun book that children and adults will love to read. Illustrations by Howard McWilliam are an absolute treasure and further enhance this whimsical children's picture book." --clcreviews.blogspot.com
"This story is a unique twist on the whole idea of monsters under the bed . . . . Hey, That's my Monster! is sure to bring 'giggles and shivers' to young ones and help make bed time a fun time." -- Christa McGrath, edwardsbookclub.com "This one was a hit with our seven year old - she loved the monster Cynthia best, and thought it was hilarious how the little sister Emma wanted to dress her up!" -- Crystal Cahill, Elementary Library Teacher and Gr. 1 Teacher
