The classic picture book story about a little boy and his preoccupied parents who are too busy to notice him -- now available in a miniature hardcover edition. Bernard's parents are so busy doing their own thing, that they don't notice the monster in the garden, nor see when the monster eats Bernard. In fact, the monster can eat Bernard's dinner, break his toys, and even say "But I'm a monster," without being noticed! "From the Hardcover edition."
