Description: "Wildly imaginative and totally terrifying-- No Place for Monsters will scare you silly!"--Jeff Kinney, New York Times bestselling author of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series " No Place For Monsters is like a haunted-house version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory . Kory Merritt's wonderfully scary drawings will keep you turning the pages through this truly spooky adventure."--Brian Selznick, New York Times bestselling author of The Invention of Hugo Cabret and Wonderstruck " No Place for Monsters is so striking, it leaves an after image. You'll be seeing the art long after you've shut your eyes for the night. Kory Merritt's vision of monsters in our world is terrifying and unforgettable."--Max Brallier, New York Times bestselling author of the Last Kids on Earth series "This is one hell of a middle-grade read, the kind that will spark imaginations as it is read late at night under the covers with a flashlight. . . . A wonderfully spooky tale."-- Kirkus , STARRED review "A story for persistent readers who are interested in fantastical mysteries with many twists, turns, and lively illustrations." -- School Library Journal "Merritt's black-and-white line drawings of legendary creatures--which are truly the spooky stuff of nightmares--and the interspersed shaky hand-lettered text add extra creepiness." -- Horn Book Magazine "Detailed, vivid illustrations are essential, moving the story forward between the text...It's a grim world all around, but at least there are moments of brightness, as when Levi and his sister, reunited, rekindle their deep connection that was lost in the move. Sometimes monsters and darkness abound, but it is enough to have one person that you know has your back."-- The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
