Books with title Monsters and Creatures of the Night

This is a story about our son, Connor, who had a difficult time sleeping through the night because of the ‘monsters’ hiding in his room. Leaving on lights or sitting beside his bed until he fell asleep had mixed results, so we wanted to share a story that finally ended the sleepless nights…for all of us. We hope you have the same success. If you have a son or daughter who is scared of the dark, for whatever reason, than this book is for you.

A spectacular collection of animals who are at home in the dark. Creatures of the Night features more than a dozen extraordinary animals that live in the dark.

The animals featured include: Aye-aye -- A lifetime spent in rain forest trees where they curl up to sleep during the day Common Glow-worm -- Bioluminescent beetle that doesn't look like a beetle Fungi -- More closely related to animals than plants, fungi "expand" (rather than grow) over a damp night Kinkajou -- Night-roaming cousin of raccoons Mexican Red-kneed Tarantula -- Hunts at night, capturing insects, frogs, lizards and mice Net-casting spider -- A huge pair of forward-facing eyes help it to see at night Railroad worm -- The only animal that is naturally bioluminescent in the red spectrum Vampire bat -- Day-sleepers that hunt during the darkest part of the night. Intricately drawn artworks give accurate details of each animal's anatomy and behavior, and stunning photographs show how each animal hunts.
