Picture Storybooks

A funny, bedtime picture book story perfect for any child who struggles with bedtime worries. With laughs and surprises on every turn of the page, Sean Taylor – the author of over 60 books for children – uses imaginative play to transform “monsters in the dark” into fun characters that no child could ever be afraid of!

It’s lights-out time for BJ, and he’s all tucked up and ready for bed. But hold on… There’s a yeti in his cupboard! How can he possibly sleep now? “Daaaad!” he calls. “How do you get rid of a yeti?”

Every time BJ calls Dad for help, Dad suggests a new way to get rid of the monster. But BJ knows something Dad doesn’t … this yeti LOVES the spotlight, adores applause and isn’t the least bit scared of crocodiles, torches OR loud noises.

Will BJ ever go to sleep? Will Dad EVER get a chance to relax? Will the yeti become a pop star?!
