Martina and Anitram have more in common than they realize and when a mysterious hole opens up in the floor between their worlds, they are in for a big surprise! A beautiful and clever tale that makes a perfect bedtime story for anyone who is afraid of (or wants to become friends with) a monster!

From School Library Journal K-Gr 2—Martina is scared of the monsters in the night. The sweet girl is convinced an upside-down city populated by monsters exists beneath her bedroom floor. Every night, she must make sure she remains completely under the safety of her blankets so she doesn't get pulled into the monster's world. When her father assures her, "I will fight MONSTERS for you," she manages to fall asleep. That night, Martina dreams of a furry, pink monster named Anitram, who lives a life that mirrors her own. Anitram is afraid of humans and her father promises to fight her fears for her. As they sleep, a hole magically opens between the two upside-down worlds. Martina and Anitram let their arms slip over the edge of the bed, and they join hands. With this act of friendship, the girl and the little monster overcome their fear of the unknown and discover how much they have in common. The gentle cartoon illustrations feature dark outlines and a soft blue and pink bedtime palette. Martina, in her striped pajamas and pigtails, is a darling character, and Anitram is cute and cuddly. VERDICT Pair this debut picture book with Josh Schneider's equally imaginative Bedtime Monsters (Clarion, 2013).—Linda L. Walkins, Saint Joseph Preparatory High School, Boston, MA
Review "On its surface, Balmes' tale functions as a nothing-to-be-afraid-of bedtime story, with recognizable fears embellished by one girl's particular imagination. But the story also works as a deeper metaphor for looking past the 'other' to see common humanity." Booklist (online), April 24, 2015"Martina, in her striped pajamas and pigtails, is a darling character, and Anitram is cute and cuddly." School Library Journal, February 1, 2015"Lyona's pink and blue monsters are even cuter than Martina, and the book's sweetly conceived conclusion (not to mention the pair of warmhearted fathers, human and monster) will calm any nervous bed-goer." Publishers Weekly, January 9, 2015"After Anitram is reassured by her own father, she falls asleep as well, leading to a beautiful moment when the two characters' hands meet through the imagined hole in the floor." Kirkus Reviews, January 15, 2015
