Believe it or Not, My Brother has a Monster! by Nesbit - ESSENTIAL

Nesbitt, Karen. Believe it or Not, My Brother has a Monster!  PICTURE BOOK.  Cartwheel Books, 2015. $6.99.  Content: G

When two boys get together to play with their pets in their bedroom, they let their imagination go wild and suddenly their dog was a monster and their geckos were lizards.  The younger brother is worried about what Mom and Dad will think until they come and are pleased that the boys are having such a good time and being so creative.  

The book is filled with rhyming couplets and reads like a poem.  The illustrations really help to tell the story too.
