Bedtime can stir up all kinds of emotions. Good Night Monster is your child’s very own nighttime guardian, a friend for whenever they’re worried or scared or simply want to snuggle up.
Good Night Monsters everywhere love to give cuddles and look after their favorite humans, and sometimes they enjoy exploring the dark. What adventures will your kid’s monster have?
Includes a plush, a picture book, a letter to your child, and tips for grown-ups on how to use Monster for a happier bedtime.
“Every child will want a Good Night Monster of their own after experiencing all the wonderful ways in which they make bedtimes worry and hassle free. Waking up when the sun goes down, Monster is adventurous, brave, a bit silly, and adorably fluffy, with pointy teeth and wee horns.” – Foreword Reviews
“A cuddly tool to help children build positive associations around bedtime and mitigate common fears.” – Kirkus
