In a logical, clear-thinking, pre-911 world Boy Hernandez would be madly filling orders with his newly established women’s fashion line, (B)oy for Bergdorf-Goodman, Bloomingdale’s and other trend setting hotspots. But in this post-911 world of fast and at times, sloppy security work, Boy’s been thrown into Gitmo for allegedly assisting terrorists by funneling money through his clothing design studio. HA!
Everybody knows that monsters live under the bed, but not everyone is as fond of their own personal monster as Ethan.
Poor Ethan is ever so upset when he looks under the bed to wish his monster Gabe goodnight only to find a note telling him that Gabe has gone fishing for a week!
Ethan needs his monster to get a good night's sleep, so what on earth is he going to do? Herbert, Ralph, Cynthia, and Mack all try to help out but they just aren't the same. Not the same scary claws, not the same scary, spiky tail, not the same snoring. Just not the same! What will poor Ethan do, and when will Gabe come back?
Fabulously illustrated, this is a wonderful book about change, loyalty, and friendship, all wrapped up in a lovable, huggable monster!
Oh, wait, did I say lovable and huggable? I meant SCARY!!!! --Antonia
