(3) K-3 Illustrated by S. D. Schindler. At night, a many-legged, multicolored monster makes its way to a sleeping child's messy room and begins to clean up, describing its efforts in amusing couplets: "Ouch, / ouch, / I step on blocks and screws. / Piu, / piu, / what smelly socks and shoes!" Schindler portrays the large, friendly creature in admirable detail, from its flower-like nostrils to its long tail tipped with a useful hand.
