Avi is scared of the night monster. His sister suggests  Avi draw a picture of the night monster and lock it up in a box. He does, but he is still frightened. His sister suggests rewrite a letter to the night monster and say what frightens him. 
Avi writes a letter every night and in the morning he has a reply from the night monster. Will Avi still be frightened?"  

This is a cute book and I would recommend it to students that are scared of the dark and of monsters in the night. I read this to two of my grandchildren and we enjoyed the story and they especially liked the illustrations.
