On a cold, dark night perfect for scaring, the members of Fright Club gather to practice their booing, hissing, and growling. But one monster is acting strange . . . Fran is busy making something, and Vladimir wants to know what it is! Could it be a mask with fangs or a big pink nose? A little rounded bat or a paper butt?

But Rabbit knows what it is-a valentine! Could Fran be in love with someone??

This clever, rollicking read aloud text has delightfully spooky illustrations and an adorable message that even monsters have valentines.

Industry Reviews

"Long's dark, ghostly palette sets an appropriately eerie mood, and he has a lot of fun with the cuddly animals' reign of terror. . . Don't worry about what goes bump in the night, Long seems to suggest--daylight can be plenty scary, too." - Publishers Weekly on FRIGHT CLUB

"Long delivers an original story full of droll humor while also introducing the concept of questioning stereotypes and rules. . . Long ably proves that 'when it comes to scaring, the more the merrier.'" - Kirkus Reviews on FRIGHT CLUB

"Silly but entertaining." - School Library Journal on FRIGHT CLUB

"It's a funny Halloween concept that delivers." - The Horn Book on FRIGHT CLUB

"The lighthearted tone makes this Halloween tale a perfect pick for younger children. Monster names such as Virginia Wolf and Mumford N. Suns will entertain the adults as well." - Booklist on FRIGHT CLUB

"Doubling as a baby book and an early reader, this book about the ups and downs of avian rivalry succeeds abundantly on both fronts." - The New York Times on UP! TALL! AND HIGH!
