I think Patty Cake and the Monsters Under the Bed is a perfect, fresh take on picture books about scary monsters after dark. I loved that the young girl is helping her father to not be scared throughout this book! The rhyming structure was fun, the illustrations were adorable, and I felt like this one was paced really well! Thanks to NetGalley, Vanessa Ann Vigilante, and Bookbaby for the chance to read and review. My opinions are my own!

Patty Cake and the Monsters Under the Bed is an absolute delight! Patty Cake flips the script by helping her dad conquer his fear of those pesky under-the-bed monsters in a charming rhyming tale full of heart and humor. Each day brings a new, quirky monster, keeping the story fresh and fun. I loved the clever twist of a child helping a parent—it made me smile the whole way through. Perfect for bedtime or anytime, this book is a gem for kids and grown-ups alike!

Super heartwarming and creative book that teaches young readers to fight their fears. This book definitely pushes back against the common fear that little ones have about monsters living under their bed. However, it doesn't do this is just any old way. The author and illustrator worked together to dream up unique monsters that are scary but also funny at times (thanks to the brilliant illustrations!). This brought A LOT of variety/diversity to the book and kept readers guessing and engaged throughout the entire book. Lastly, this book was organized really well! The author went through what monster appears on each day of the week, and this gave the book a nice structure. The ending didn't come too soon/late, and the overall book was a good length.
Bravo!

OMG, Patty Cake and the Monsters Under the Bed is SO stinkin’ cute! I mean, Patty Cake helping her dad deal with monsters? Total role reversal, and I’m here for it. The rhymes are snappy, the monsters are hilarious, and it’s just the right amount of silly. I read this with my niece, and she made me promise to read it again tomorrow. If you want giggles and monster fun, grab this book ASAP! 🛌👾

Patty Cake and the Monsters Under the Bed is about a dad who keeps dreaming about monsters under the bed! His daughter helps come up with a solution to make them go away.

I liked that the adult was the one dealing with a fear instead of a child and and that the child helped come up with the solution. Kids will like this twist and seeing how they could be in a position of strength and having ideas listened to. The illustrations are cute and there are some wild looking monsters! The rhyming keeps it engaging for younger kiddos.

Thanks to BookBaby and NetGalley for an eARC of this book for an honest review.
