No Monsters Here
We are all afraid of what—and whom—we don't know... When a little boy is afraid of monsters, his father keeps soothing his fears. But, a little monster boy is also afraid...of people! They both learn a valuable lesson... ...that once we learn about things—and others—we're no longer afraid.
Vard Freer, a former builder and K-12 teacher, enjoys being a grandfather to ten little monsters of his own. A graduate of Winthrop University, he holds degrees in English and Elementary Education. When not writing, he is also an enthusiastic cook, an avid walker, and a long-distance trail-hiker. He and his wife live in South Carolina.
