Hear ye! Hear ye!

Aspiring knight Charlie is ready to do battle! The only problem? The beasts and brutes are all in bustling Biggerborough, and she’s stuck in the wee hamlet of Little Import. Until one day . . . Charlie overhears the local baker lamenting that something has been eating all the pastries. Could it be a Triple-Tier Hungerbeak?!

Much to Charlie’s surprise, solving problems caused by small monsters leads to big changes. So begins an epic quest to capture monsters throughout town and find a safe place for them to live . . . in the world’s very first monster sanctuary!

Author and illustrator Hannah Batsel brilliantly chronicles Charlie’s conquests in a story that celebrates courage, ingenuity, and community.
