Category: Monsters

The monsters in these stories are created by yawns, imagination and difficult feelings rather than simple evil. Yawnkin calms unusual Halloween companions, while Leo’s angry drawing becomes a creature that damages his home. Another great yawn brings garden characters toward sleep. The category lets children meet something strange, ask what caused it and watch fear change once the problem is understood.

Leo and the Magic Paintbrush

Leo is about to become a big brother, but he worries that his parents will love him less. In this magic paintbrush story about sibling jealousy, his angry drawing becomes a monster and wrecks the house. Leo must use his art to help repair the damage before meeting his baby sister, Aria.
