Walt Disney Animation and Dreamworks SKG feature film artist Jeff Snow presents Beasts In The Closet, a rhyming picturebook about strange noises in the night that chill a five-year-old boy's heart. He imagines all sorts of hideous creatures with hungry and terrible plans, and tries desperately to convince his mother that the monsters in his closet and under his bed are real. But when morning comes and he is unharmed, he begins to question his own fears about mysterious beasts--could it be that what oppresses him worst is fear itself? Or could it be that the monsters are tame and have an unfair reputation just because they make a little noise? The unforgettable and colorful art style perfectly matches a simple story about growing up and learning to sleep alone at night.
