Penelope refuses to go to sleep because she just knows that there are monsters lurking in the dark

Penelope refuses to go to sleep because she just knows that there are monsters lurking in the dark. That's the only way to explain the dancing drawers, creaking closets, and bouncing bed! Even though her own father won't believe, plucky Penelope takes on gnomes, trolls, and giants! Imaginatively written by Sheri Radford, and featuring the lively illustrations of Christine Tripp, Penelope And The Monsters is a charmingly delightful picturebook which is ideal for family, school, and community library picturebook collections. Also very highly recommended is Radford and Tripp's first title about this unusual and comic little heroine, Penelope And The Humongous Burp (1894222830, $15.95).
