Goodnight Goon : A Petrifying Parody

Goodnight monsters everywhere, in this parody romp with its own special twist! Goodnight tomb. Goodnight goon. Goodnight Martians taking over the moon. It's bedtime in the cold gray tomb with a black lagoon, and two slimy claws, and a couple of jaws, and a skull and a shoe and a pot full of goo. But as a little werewolf settles down, in comes the Goon determined at all costs to run amok and not let any monster have his rest. A beloved classic gets a kind-hearted send up in this utterly monsterized parody; energetic art and a hilarious text will have kids begging to read this again and again.

Michael Rex has written and illustrated nineteen books for children. He-'s a big fan of Margaret- Wise Brown and Clement Hurd-'s Goodnight Moon, but feels it is severely lacking monsters with sharp teeth, and small creatures in peril. The author lives in the Bronx, New York.
