    About this ebook

    It has been precisely six years, fifteen days, eleven hours, and some odd minutes since the wildly outrageous, spunky six-year-old Gracie Lou has had a good night’s sleep, or honk-shoo as she calls it. Like most children her age, Gracie Lou is downright terrified of a shaggy-haired, six-eyed, horny-spiked bad dream monster that creeps into her room and creates a major ruckus every night. As the problem grows, Gracie Lou’s daddy turns himself into the Bad Dream Eater. Like a good Bad Dream Eater, he promises to swallow any rotten monster that dares to wake his darling Gracie Lou, if she is brave enough to face her fears. Yet, Daddy’s plan is foiled when the monster does something most unexpected. He brings along a friend! Despite being a lovely shade of pink, the newest monster has Gracie Lou shaking in her sheets. Finally, Gracie Lou summons all the courage she has and tries to take on those pesky beasts. What happens next is both silly and hysterical. But the question is, does Gracie Lou and the Bad Dream Eater defeat the monsters once and for all? Or do the bad dream monsters win and bring more friends to go bump in the night?

    Moooommmyyyy, Daaaaaaddddy, shouted Gracie Lou in a panic.

    Sleepily, Gracie Lou’s daddy marched up the stairs. Yawning at the top, he tried to remember the last time he had gotten a decent night’s sleep. Before he reached her bedroom Daddy decided it had been precisely six years, fifteen days, eleven hours, and some odd minutes since his last full rest—or at least, that is how long his darling Gracie Lou had been alive.
