Scaredy Monster has a BIG secret. He's not scary like many monsters--he's a scaredy monster! From Epic! Originals, Scaredy Monster is an illustrated early reader series about conquering fears and trying new things! Join Scaredy Monster as he overcomes his fears of losing a tooth, riding a bike, and going to his first sleepover. With some help from Mommy Monster, Scaredy discovers he's much braver than he thought--and he finds ways to feel safe and happy while doing scary things!
When Rex stumbles across a monster in his bedroom one evening, he's not sure what to do. Hide under the bed? "Hey, that's where I sleep!" says the monster. The closet? Aren't there monsters in there, too? Clearly the big, not-so-scary monster is up to no good—like taking his Nintendo Switch for a spin. Approximately 2,300 words. Descriptions of my other popular children's books are included after the main feature (an additional 5 pages).
This brand-new adventure series is filled with laughs, danger, and facing fears! Follow Freddy von Frankenstein and his monster big brother, F.M., as well as and his adopted sister, a werecat named Riya, as they explore the supernatural mountain they call home and discover all the fantastical creatures living there! It's the day before Freddy's eighth birthday, and he's so excited that he's old enough to go to town for the first time! However, his brother's holographic disguise goes awry, forcing them to run away before the townsfolk realize that F.M. is a big, hulking monster. On their way home, they run into a strange tiger unlike any they've seen before. Freddy zooms away from it, as he's scared of fantastical creatures that weren't created by science, like his brother was. The next morning, Freddy's parents introduce him to Riya, who mysteriously showed up and needs a place to stay. Freddy is wary, worried that she's going to take his parents' attention away from him, especially on his birthday! He thinks she might be hiding something, but when the tiger comes back and Riya disappears, Freddy has to put his suspicion aside to find her. Can he brave his fear of the fantasticals to get Riya back home safely?
