Publisher's Note
In any language, this wry tale of two brothers who amiably try to outdo each other by creating jumbo-size imaginary friends is "a great read-aloud" ("School Library Journal").

Industry Reviews
In this sequel to There's a Monster Under My Bed, one brother invents a dragon to play with, the other invents a camel. "A clever variation on the imaginary friend theme," said PW. Ages 4-7. (May)

PreS-Gr 2 ``There's a dragon in my sleeping bag. I can't see him, but my brother says he's there.'' When the dragon appears at the breakfast table and on the swing set as well, it becomes clear that big brother Simon is deliberately shutting out his younger sibling. But two can play at that game, and before long...there's a camel in Simon's sleeping bag. By book's end, both boys have asserted their solo identities and reaffirmed their brotherly bond. Rose's dark palette and solid, heavily outlined forms lend a surreal quality to this almost-fantasy, with the comic antics of a dragon and camel sounding an appropriately lighter note. Text and drawings achieve a neat balance, the end result being a satisfying and psychologically sound excursion into the realm of sibling dynamics. Marcia Hupp, Mamaroneck Public Library, NY
