Created by identical twin brothers (Kyle is the author and Derek is the illustrator), responsible for the Hazy Fables middle-grade series including Hobgoblin and the Seven Stinkers of Rancidia and Zombie, Or Not to Be, and the children's picture book The Cyclops Witch and the Heebie-Jeebies Goodnight Krampus is an adorable take on the Bavarian Christmas demon, Krampus, a character that has attained a level of serious cultural cache on the internet over the past few years, even getting his own major motion picture in 2015. As Monster ABC taught us, monsters don't have to be scary--and Krampus is no exception. Re-imagined for young children as a gently mischievous youngster, little Krampus takes the form of an overexcited child on Christmas Eve who's too excited to sleep. Visually inspired by the classic Rankin/Bass stop-motion Christmas movies, this bedtime story is a whimsical ode to Christmas excitement. Appeals to children and parents alike with a scenario that both sides can identify with: a tired parent's frantic attempts to convince an overexcited youngster that sometimes going to bed is in the best interests of everyone. Written in thoughtfully crafted verses with a playful lullaby cadence, Goodnight Krampus has become a bedtime favorite for any time of year
