Samantha Foster's first children's book is wonderfully illustrated.  The pictured monsters are colorful and easy for children to focus on.  Reading this book to a child while in bed, can help start a dialog of things that a child might fear that may creep into their bedroom at night.  In their mind, they can already envision such monsters, so this book helps a child recognize such creepy villains and learn that these little monsters (always smaller than the child), are scared, too.  And the child learns through his own power of a smile, that the monsters just might turn into friends who will also turn their frowns into smiles.  I think Author Samantha Foster has accomplished a great children's book which communicates extremely well with children of a very young age.
