Have you ever wondered what it would be like if the monsters and creatures your parents told you about when you were little were actually real?
What if those tales were not imagined, but actual stories of an ancestral species that had been in North America long before the Europeans settled this land?
His middle school classmates had always considered Baibin Artweiller an outcast, and he preferred it that way.
After an art project assignment unwillingly placed Baibin, Sam and Rachel in the same group, they were forced to figure out how to get along and work together. When Baibin received word that his grandfather (Ambassador to the Monsters) had been kidnapped, the trio were thrust in a world where the Bogeyman was set on world domination and the "Monster Under the Bed" became their guide.
Together, the three teenagers embark on a hair-raising adventure to figure out who kidnapped Baibin's grandfather, what are their plans and how they can stop them. Along the way, they run into wonderful creatures as RoseGarland the Wise, Queen of the Botanicals and Hartreal the Historian, Troll Under the Bridge. Eventually, their voyage takes them underground for the final battle against Maltroph (the Bogeyman) and his army.
