School Library Journal - 10/01/2012 PreS-K—Bespectacled Maia and her best friend, a furry purple monster who visits at night, have the same problem-cranky newborn sisters. Fortunately, Maia amuses Monster's baby and vice versa, so the quartet end up with smiles. Haley's acrylic and colored pencil cartoon-style illustrations are full of expression and detail and boost the tale. Maia's side of the bedroom has a dragon poster and Halloween mobile; her sister's has mermaids and fairies. The older monster is girlie and the monster baby wears four pink bows. Girls with new siblings will especially appreciate this friendship story.—Gay Lynn Van Vleck, Henrico County Library, Glen Allen, VA - Copyright 2012 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
