"Rich with feeling . . . a warm, gently funny reminder to chase down one's dreams, rather than waiting for them to appear on the doorstep." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)
Some of the kids in Marilyn's class have monsters. Marilyn doesn't have hers yet, but she can't just go out and look for one. Your monster has to find you. That's just the way it works.
