Paul is just a nice, ordinary kid. Until bedtime that is, when Paul becomes positively monstrous! He whines. He grumbles. He howls. Paul even sprouts long ears, sharp claws, and a great big tail. Paul is a bedtime monster!

Bedtime Monster is the story of a common nighttime occurrence—the bedtime tantrum. Children will perhaps see a tiny bit of themselves in Paul. Parents will empathize with the nighttime struggle to get kids to bed. And everyone will enjoy the humor of Dad’s ‘secret’ reason for understanding his son, the bedtime monster.
