Monster Tails: A Green Eyed Boy Named Harvey

Gatekeeper Press

Monster Tails is a story that focuses on the poor choices that toddlers tend to make in the “terrible twos” years when temper tantrums abound. Harvey is a typical 2-year-old who handles a simple need much differently than that of his family members. As Harvey’s behavior escalates, he transforms from a stubborn little boy into a ferocious little monster. At the end of the book, Harvey must make the right choice in order to solve his problem.
