About Hush, Little Monster:

A monster father softly sings his own version of a favorite lullaby to his son. A screeching owl, a vampire, an ogre, and zombies are just a few of the creatures who will come to soothe Little Monster through the night, until (when the sun comes up) it’s finally time for him to go to sleep. Parents and children alike will love this humorous twist on Hush, Little Baby.

Praise:

"
These husband-and-wife collaborators score some very funny moments while delivering a sweetly ghoulish story about a guardian’s love for a child (horns and all)." - Publishers Weekly

Author Bio: 


Denis Markell has written everything from off-Broadway musicals to sitcoms, including funny birthday cards for family members. Hush, Little Monster is his second book for children and was inspired by singing “Hush, Little Baby” to his son every night. For years. His fondest hope is that this will stop before his son goes to college.

Melissa Iwai has illustrated numerous award-winning books for children, including Good Night Engines and Wake Up Engines by Denise Dowling Mortensen, Snuggle Mountain by Lindsey Lane, and Soup Day, which she also wrote.
