The beloved and bestselling author of Inkheart returns with a chapter book full of mischief, heart, hilarious illustrations, and pet monsters!
 
Goodbye, earthworms. Hello, chocolate cake!
 
Ruffleclaw is a furry red monster who lives under a toolshed, and he’s sick of eating bugs. When he decides to move in with a family of humans, he climbs right into bed with a boy named Tommy. Tommy wants to keep Ruffleclaw as a pet, but it won’t be easy. Ruffleclaw makes huge messes—he spits, he drinks shampoo, and he eats everything in the fridge . . . along with the plates! Can Tommy teach his monster to behave?
 
Cornelia Funke’s signature touch of imagination and humor delights young readers in her chapter books—Emma and the Blue Genie, The Pirate Pig, and Ruffleclaw.

      Cornelia Funke's passion for children's fantasy shines in this audiobook filled with wondrous and otherworldly charm. Ruffleclaw, an earth monster, decides to move in with a human family. He befriends the boy, Tommy, first. Funke provides a raspy, endearing voice for Ruffleclaw's colorful exclamations--just two examples: "totally creepy-crawladocious!" when he listens to the jingly music and "mouse poop!" when he's lectured for drinking all the shampoo. Ruffleclaw's first encounter with Tommy's mother is a hoot, with her frantic shrieks and Ruffleclaw's growling and hissing monster threats. Ruffleclaw's hilarious play date with monster friends Shaggystink and Wormtooth, who come to visit, will have children laughing out loud. M.F.T. © AudioFile 2016, Portland, Maine
