A monster-sized bedtime standoff

Baths, pajamas and story time become points of protest for four monster friends who are not ready to turn in. Even cheerful Snoodle is caught up in the bedslime blues, leaving the group to figure out how all that stomping and clomping can give way to sleep. Kris Tarantino’s picture-book setup turns familiar bedtime steps into a playful monster dilemma, with bedtime resistance and the hope of a peaceful night at its center.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • A read-aloud choice for children ages 4–8 who enjoy monster characters and bedtime humor.
  • May work well for families looking for a playful story around bedtime routines.

Book overview

Bedtime routines get a jolt of silliness and some sweetness as four monster friends try to resist bedtime in this wonderful bedtime tale.

It's time for bed... except monsters DON'T DO bedtime!

Iggy doesn't want to take a bath. Zee-Zee's jammies are icky. Fleck whines and stomps when it's story time. The bedslime blues are impossible to escape--even for the usually cheerful and enthusiastic Snoodle!

With all their stomping and clomping, how on earth will these gruffy, grumpy monsters lie down for a peaceful night of ZZZ's?

Author Kris Tarantino and New York Times bestselling illustrator Cori Doerrfeld partner once again with this fun and funny bedtime read-aloud for any "little monster" that won't go to sleep!
