# Goodnight Goon: A Petrifying Parody - Board Book

by **Michael Rex** (Author), **Michael Rex** (Illustrator)

****This #1 _New York Times_ bestselling picture book parody is the perfect Halloween read!****  
_Goodnight tomb. Goodnight goon. Goodnight Martians taking over the moon.  
_  
It's bedtime in the cold gray tomb with a black lagoon, and two slimy claws, and a couple of jaws, and a skull and a shoe and a pot full of goo. But as a little werewolf settles down, in comes the Goon determined at all costs to run amok and not let any monster have his rest.

A beloved classic gets a kind-hearted send up in this utterly monsterized parody; energetic art and clever text will have kids begging to read this again and again. The board book edition is the perfect size for little hands!

And keep your eye out for other Mike Rex favorites: _We're Going on a Goon Hunt_ and _The Runaway Mummy_!

### Author Biography

Michael Rex has written and illustrated over 40 books for children, including the gruesomely hysterical, #1 _New York Times_ bestseller _Goodnight Goon_. His popular sword-swinging Fangbone!

He visits schools across the country and internationally to share his books with students of all ages, and he has a master's degree in Arts Education. His work covers a wide range of styles, from the simple, goofy rhymes of _Truck Duck_, to the heavily illustrated, yuck-filled _Icky Ricky_ chapter books.
