Poor Amanda Pig! She's never going to get any sleep with all of the monsters in her room. Or maybe there are no such things as monsters. One thing's for sure, though: Amanda is going to have to be a big girl if she wants the monsters to go away for good.

Jean Van Leeuwen is the author of more than fifty children's books, including picture books, Easy-to-Read books, and middle-grade fiction. Ms. Van Leeuwen now lives in another small town north of New York City with her husband, Bruce Gavril. She has two grown children, David and Elizabeth, and a young grandchild, who will surely inspire more stories.
Kindergarten-Grade 2-Amanda Pig is back in another easy-to-read chapter book. At bedtime, she fears a monster, even though her family insists that there is no such thing. She just knows that a fearsome creature is lurking about-maybe under the bed or in the closet-ready to grab her. Slowly, with the help of her brother, who builds a monster trap, and with the loving support of her parents, Amanda overcomes her fear and realizes that she's "too big a pig to be scared of a little monster." Van Leeuwen captures childhood emotions perfectly and includes just the right amount of humor. With bright illustrations done in carbon pencil, colored pencils, and watercolor washes on every page, this book will delight the piglet's many fans.
