Reading this book brought a lot of my childhood memories back and I couldn’t help but smile, even though back then, I certainly didn’t think they were funny.īut not only does Danny have the typical child fears, he’s also lost his parents and being bullied at school. I remember when I was young, I used to run and jump on the bed quickly so the monsters couldn’t grab my legs. We all had fears as children didn’t we? From monsters in the closet, to the ones hiding under your bed. Our main character is little Danny who is trying his best to overcome his fears. The story is also great and grips you from the first page. The drawings are so dark, they fit the story perfectly. All I could think about was Nightmare Before Christmas for some reason :). I’m going to talk briefly about the illustrations first – as soon as I saw the first one, only one thing came into my mind. This book is fantastic, and although this book is meant for a younger audience, I can safely say that people of all ages will enjoying reading this story and looking at the brilliantly dark illustrations. 5 Stars (I’d give it 6 if it were possible)
