While getting ready for bed, a young child hatches a plan to
finally catch the monsters hiding in his room at night. He rigs a
trap and keeps his eyes open, while five pairs of eyes creep
closer and closer. The bag above his bed falls, and he’s caught
them!
But instead of icky monsters, he finds a set of fairies, each one
with their own talent. With five new friends to watch over him,
now he can fall asleep knowing that he’s safe.
This sweet bedtime tale with beautiful imagery is based on a
poem given to the illustrator’s friend, Kelley, by her grandmother
when she was a little girl. Now, Kelley sings the poem as a lullaby
to her own children.
Perfect for the child who’s afraid of the dark, this book will give
reassurance that gentle creatures will always watch over them
and keep the scary things away.
