Time Out for Monsters!

(3) PS Illustrated by Robert Neubecker. "There's a corner in my house that needs some fixing up." During his time-out, a boy imagines glorious wall-spanning assemblages of monsters, trucks, etc. At book's end, readers learn that he has been coloring on the wall--meaning more trouble. Readers may be unfamiliar with the outdated punishment corner, but this spirited book's message about imagination's transcendent power is timeless.
