Picture
Opening page: 

My bed is out to get me killed;
It hates me through and through.
When I jump in, it kicks me out; 
​I don't know what to do.

Beelzebed
by Bryan Davis

This hardcover children’s picture book is not your typical bedtime story. In fact, it can seem quite scary. Yet children will want it read to them again and again so they can cheer on young Walter Foley as he does battle with his imaginary, mischievous bed and conquers his fears.

Like Walter, young readers will find comfort that the fears of the night are really nothing to worry about. They can sleep peacefully in their own friendly beds, knowing that they are safe and all is well.
