Mostly Monsterly

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Scott Magoon. Bernadette looks the part of a monster child, but she has "a deep...dark...secret": on the inside, she's a flower-picking, pet-loving sweetie bent on a group (monster) hug. The unmonsterly-monster story has been done before, but it's done well here. Magoon's digital art tempers its cuddly elements with creepiness (and vice versa).
