Goodnight Goon: a Petrifying Parody [Hardcover]

The #1 New York Times bestselling picture book parody will have kids howling with laughter.  

Goodnight tomb. Goodnight goon. Goodnight Martians taking over the moon.

It's bedtime in the cold gray tomb with a black lagoon, and two slimy claws, and a couple of jaws, and a skull and a shoe and a pot full of goo. But as a little werewolf settles down, in comes the Goon determined at all costs to run amok and not let any monster have his rest.

A beloved classic gets a kind-hearted send up in this utterly monsterized parody; energetic art and a hilarious text will have kids begging to read this again and again.

A clever offering just right for graduates of bedtimes withGoodnight Moon. —School Library Journal
