    About this ebook

    In a bedroom in the dark, someone is scared of The Monster.
    He is hiding, trying to keep himself safe from the creature he fears the most.

    Beware of the darkness, avoid the light,
    Fear The Monster, fear the night.
    Creature is coming, when you sleep,
    He is close, he will creep.
