An adorable story of bravery, friendship, and helping others.
Milo thinks there is a monster under his bed. He asks his best friend across the street for help. Luckily, Mel knows just what to do. Together, Milo and Mel use shadows to scare the monster away.
Nicely written. A sweet story with engaging actions. Readers are sure to enjoy making monster hands along with the characters.
Milo and Mel communicate through their windows using ASL and I love how effortlessly sign language is woven into the story.
The illustrations are lovely. The artwork does a wonderful job showing the movement of the different signs. I also love the monster fonts used.
A sweet bedtime story perfect for scaring the monsters away.
