The Monster Who Loved Books

by Keith Faulkner Illustrated by Jonathan Lambert

When Bradley finds half-eaten books in his father's store, he knows something strange is happening. But he never expects to discover a monster in the store -- a monster who loves books. And this monster loves reading them -- as well as eating them! Bradley and the monster are even more surprised to find that they share the same taste in books.
