Review: Amusing Short Story With the Odd Illustration
Rating: 5 out of 5

There's only one story in this one, the title implies with the words Funny Bedtime Stories that there is more than one. It is a good one though.  It will probably take you around six or seven minutes to read if you talk about what is happening as you read it to stretch it out.  There's a couple of illustrations that appear occasionally but not many. This would be even better done in the style of an actual picture book.  Oddly there is also a photo of an eagle, I would have preferred a drawing of one. It does seem a bit out of place.  The story itself is great, a monster isn't tired and doesn't want to go sleep so takes whatever his mother says literally.  Such as no toys on the bed, so he obeys the rule and uses his imagination instead.  Head on the pillow, he does that but kicks the wall. That's just the beginning or the monster's determination to play while always obeying the rule.  It will no doubt give your kids some ideas of how to win arguments and teach parents to be a bit more clear with instructions. A fun read, I'll check out more by this author.
