Review Quotes:
"Many books into this series, Willan has the funny/adorable/touching balancing act down pat."-- Kirkus Reviews

Review Quotes:
"The vivid illustrations and whimsical characters provide an adorable look into the mythical world of caring for a giant baby monster...the book emphasizes the importance of selflessness for young ones."--School LIbrary Journal

Publisher Marketing:
Gilbert accidentally brings home a slobbery, bite-sized monster in the hilarious latest installment in The Worst! picture book series, where even the strangest of creatures can become the best of friends.

When plucky Gilbert the Goblin and his pal Chicken go camping together, they run into creatures that go bump in the night! The friends immediately flee the woods and head home--after all, everyone knows that monsters are absolutely, undeniably, unequivocally the worst!

But when a shocking stowaway appears in Gilbert's knapsack, looking awfully cute and extra snuggly, Gilbert is...smitten! Sure, monsters can bite and drool and make a big mess, but they can also steal your heart. It's a tale so sweet it's scary!
