Summary/Back cover:
Goodnight, baby monster, all warm in your den.
Goodnight, baby goblin, it’s bedtime again.
It’s bedtime for spooky babies everywhere! From swamp-things to goblins to ghosts, all sorts of creatures are being tucked into bed.
Laura Leuck’s gentle rhyme and Nigel McMullen’s richly detailed illustrations make for the perfect bedtime story to share with you own baby monster.
Review:
The story is told in soothing rhyme. There are not too many words per page, although there are fifteen babies put to bed, so it does get a bit repetitive by the end.
Obviously intended as a bed-time story I would exhibit caution if you think your child might be scared by the content. As cute as the illustrations of the various creatures and their habitats are, the book would be best-suited to children who won’t be bothered by a monster book being read to them at bedtime.
My rating: 3 out of 5
