This book does have nice cartoon like illustrations, although they are a bit small. The illustrations are a lot better than the story. In portrait mode the text and pictures appear on the one page.  The story itself (text) is a bit average though and seems to rest on the fact it has switched the normal reality of a human child being afraid of a monster under the bed to a monster child being afraid of a human without coming up with a clever story to go along with the idea.  It also portrayed the fear as of children, when it meant humans, which didn't make sense as the monster was a child itself too.  If the aim was wanting monsters to be afraid of children, so the child reader (who maybe has the fear of monsters under their bed) could relate, it should have used adult monsters as the bed sleepers.  A decision also needed to be made of if the book should rhyme or not rhyme, a lot of the times it seemed to be trying to rhyme but failing at that objective so came across as rather amateur writing.
