Poesy the Monster Slayer
Ratings1
Average rating5
New York Times bestselling author Cory Doctorow and illustrator Matt Rockefeller present a sweetly scary picture book about a girl whose monster-catching activities delay her bedtime in Poesy the Monster Slayer. A monster slayer needs no bedtime! Once her parents are off to bed, Poesy excitedly awaits the monsters that creep into her room. With the knowledge she’s gained from her trusty Monster Book and a few of her favorite toys, Poesy easily fends off a werewolf, a vampire, and much more. But not even Poesy's bubblegum perfume can defeat her sleep-deprived parents! At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

The illustrations and color pallete are incredible!The story reminds me of being a kid, although I would usually fall asleep right away, but I would have my imagination carry me away a lot of the time. I like the idea of parents trying to get the kid to bed but her imagination is too powerful and can not be put down! I generally like stories where creativity can't be stopped by norms and can blossom. Has a great D&D vibe, so if you liked this I would also recommend [b:Nobody Likes a Goblin 25689038 Nobody Likes a Goblin Ben Hatke https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1484349735l/25689038.SX50.jpg 45517441]
