Mailbox Monday - 2/7/2011

Mailbox Monday is a weekly meme started by Marcia at The Printed Page.  You can read all about it at the Mailbox Monday blog.  Well, the mailbox has gone on tour.  This month's host is Library of Clean Reads. 

I love this meme because it lets me take a peek into other bloggers' mailboxes and find out what they received over the last week.  I will warn you, it does lead to more books as you will find many that you want because of others mailboxes.  If you'd like to join in on the fun, post about your books and link up!

I had a very light week, which is good because it allowed me to catch up on some of the books that have piled up.  Just one book this week, but the author sent some giveaways, so be looking for those when I post the review.

The Monster on Top of the Bed by Alan H. Jordan, from author
Both Karrit and Suzy want to go to bed without being afraid, but when the lights go off at bedtime, the world is a scary place.

Then, Karrit visits Suzy . . . to make friends with “the monster” that had been scaring him.

Suzy is scared, but treats him the way that she would like to be treated. They both use Suzy’s grandmother’s mantra:
You’re welcome to stay, until I say “nay” Then, you’ve got to go, and You can’t say no. 

The Monster on Top of the Bed is available in several editions, including:

* A printed book that slides into a CD Jewel Case.
* The same book, accompanied by a CD that reads the story (and other material) in three languages – English, Spanish and Italian
* A download that installs on iPods and iPhones
* An audio-book download
* A .pdf book for use in the classroom and for licensing in libraries.
