The Wrong Monster
There's a monster in Wiley's closet. He’s sure of it. It’s banging around and keeping him awake. Most nights he would hide under the covers, but tonight, he does the unthinkable. He courageously opens the closet door to face whatever is inside. But what he finds isn’t at all what he expected!
The Wrong Monster, written by Tristram Lowe and illustrated by Jiyoon Shin, is a story of how things aren’t always as you fear them to be, and how friendship is sometimes found in the most unlikely places.
Join Wiley and his new friend on an adventure through the dark house in the middle of the night.
The Wrong Monster may help your child learn to face fears and sleep better. But be warned, it may also feed your child's imagination and spirit of adventure, not to mention show them a way to look at the world with optimism.

About the author
Tristram Lowe
5 books7 followersHi, I'm Tristram Lowe. I write mostly fantasy of some flavor or another, with a focus on reluctant heroes, underdogs, and misunderstood monsters. I much prefer exploring the internal struggle over the outward sweeping actions of confident rulers and superheroes.
The first two books of my urban fantasy thriller series, The Ghost and The Mask, are out and available. The first book, Headless, is about a couple of journalists in Tokyo investigating a serial killer who is chopping off heads—and keeping them. Masami is a top staff writer at a newspaper and she gets stuck on the assignment with Akio, a newbie staff photographer. The closer they get to the story, the stranger things become. I also wrote a fun and uplifting children’s book called The Wrong Monster, which has great artwork by Jiyoon Shin. You’ll love the monster and the positive message.
Other than writing, I love fencing (and taught it for 15 years) and tabletop games. I narrate books, was an actor for a time, and wrote and played music in bands and solo for many years, all of it under another name. I currently live in Oregon with my amazing wife and kiddos.
To pronounce Tristram correctly, simply put these two words together: Tryst (a clandestine meeting between lovers) + Rum (a hearty pirate’s drink). Combined you have TrystRum: a hearty drink to be shared by clandestine pirate lovers.

What a delight!
The story is lovely, interpreted with wonderful words and pictures. I am so pleased to read a story for children that shows meeting someone that is expected to be scary only to make a friend instead, only to discover someone who isn't scary at all. Great message!
