Illustrated by
Nick Zarin-Ackerman.
Counting down from ten to one, a boy tells about the rowdy monsters all over his house--jumping in the washing machine, sliding down the walls, gurgling under the bathroom sink or stomping in the trash. Told in sometimes forced rhyme, the story element is somewhat vague, but the energetic, scrawly cartoon illustrations and the overall silliness will appeal to monster fans.
