Review Quotes
"A kids' picture book without traditional illustrations hasn't been this much fun since B.J. Novak's excellent The Book With No Pictures (2014)--Keres and Lin have created a joyfully creepy companion. Perfect for Halloween storytimes--or any time at all."

"An innovative concept and a frighteningly good read. A GOLD WINNER and highly recommended."

Two brothers hear some sounds one night and set out to see what it is. With the never ending noises, they're convinced it's a monster. Follow along in this rhyming book full of onomatopoeia and creatively placed words with very limited pictures that builds the suspense until the end when they discover what is really making all that raucous. My 4yo loves spooky stories and there aren't many for his age. He was excited when we found this one. He enjoyed reading it that he asked to read it again.
