For any child who has trouble going to sleep, here is a funny, imaginative, and ultimately empowering bedtime book about a girl who takes control of her nightmare and shows a group of monsters that she's the boss of her dreams.

For any child who has trouble going to sleep, here is a funny, imaginative, and ultimately empowering bedtime book about a girl who takes control of her nightmare and shows a group of monsters that she's the boss of her dreams.

In this creative bedtime book, a girl finds herself in a nightmare filled with snarling "beasties." By her side is a little T-Rex named Ben, a stuffed animal who comes alive in her dreams. When she realizes that she's in the middle of a bad dream, the plucky main character uses problem-solving and quick thinking to take control of the nightmare. She turns the tables on the beasties--asserting that she is the boss and directing the ultimately harmless monsters in a silly movie before reading them a story and tucking them in so they can all--finally--get a decent night's sleep.

Praise for Leslie Staub's Time for Earth School, Dewey Dew!:
"A fine read-aloud choice, this picture book explores what it feels like to be the new kid, whatever planet you call home." --Booklist

"This is just the ticket for freshening up a back-to-school storytime or a first-day-of-school read-aloud session." --Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

Praise for Leslie Staub's How Do You Say I Love You, Dewey Dew?:
"A powerful message about the support of friends and defusing a bully wrapped in a sweet Valentine tale." --Kirkus Reviews

Praise for Jia Liu's Terrific Tongues:
"An expressive monkey acts as a guide to the animal kingdom's most interesting tongues...Back matter offers greater detail and also explains the workings of the human tongue. The appealing cover and bright, cheery illustrations will capture the attention of even casual browsers. A fine addition to early nonfiction collections." -School Library Journal
