Summary: The nighttime can be scary and Mouse and Owl hear a horrible sound! Who or what can it be?  As they determine one by one it was not each of their friends, they decide it must be a monster! To save themselves they clamber up a tree and huddle on a branch.  The suspense builds and when the branch breaks, they fall to meet the monster!  Well, actually, they find out it was their friend wolf and all is well!

Review: This picture book is a very well written, entertaining story with rhyming text, nice examples of onomatopoeia and animal sounds.  The author’s humor shows through especially when you see the picture of the moose up the tree.  The amazing, large, textured, cut paper illustrations will be appreciated by all! This book is perfect for storytime, small group or one on one.
