I Need My Monster, by Amanda Noll

Ethan is all ready for bed, but the monster who lives under his bed has left on a fishing trip! Ethan needs a scary monster under his bed to be able to fall asleep, but none of the monsters who come are scary at all. One has no sharp claws, another has only a stumpy tail, and still another is a girl! Can Ethan find a scary enough monster in time to fall asleep? This is a great bedtime story for anyone who loves monsters.
