Once
upon a time, in a bedroom not unlike yours and mine full of knick knacks, brick
bracks, and other snacks, there lived a monster named Giles with a boy under his
bed. And
so begins the imaginative story of a baby monster Giles and the boy who visits
his bedroom nightly. At first Giles is frightened. He's heard that boys lie so
they can make monster pie! When the boy confesses to only being lost, Giles befriends
him and helps him find his way back home. What
people are saying about The Boy Under the Bed: "A
most hilarious book for children and adults. Kids will have a great time reading
and looking for hidden treasures on every page. I thought this was an exceptional
book of a great concept by Preston McClear, and awesome drawings by Nicholas Dollak.
This team of writer and illustrator have just made their mark in the children's
world of books. I suggest this book for all children to read. I guarantee that
they will be picking it up again and again to look for more hidden things in the
pages! Great job guys!" Lisa, The Book Review Cafe. "Full
of colorful and imaginative illustrations, this twist on the popular notion of
monsters hiding under the bed will appeal to young girls, boys, and monsters everywhere."
Michelle Smith VegetarianBaby.com "I
just wanted to let you know how much my children enjoy this book! We met the author
at the King of Prussia Mall on April 8, and I wasn't planning to buy a book that
day, but when he told the story, I couldn't resist. My 2 children, Scotty (5)
and Jillian (almost 3) ask me to read it to them several times a day, not just
at bedtime. My husband just read it for the first time today and really enjoyed
it too! Thank you for a delightful story!" Tracy Coady |  Click
