Have you ever wondered why sometimes after you have washed your socks, one of them mysteriously disappears? Or why your shoelaces always seem to get tangled into tricky knots? The answer is, you probably have a monster problem or, more specifically, two monster problems with a gobblesock living behind your washing machine and a shoelace monster nesting under your bed. This field guide for monsterphiles of all ages, focusing on 64 curious creatures from piano tunas to soap slurpers to thunderguts, explains what they look like, what annoying habits they have, and even if they are useful for anything. With big color profile pictures for each monster and a handy section on how to keep them (or get rid of them), this is a must have book for any aspiring monster expert.
