The Monster in the Bathhouse (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781534496828)

How to Catch a Monster meets Persian myth in this engaging picture book set in a lively Iranian bathhouse the day before the Persian New Year as three boys encounter something unexpected.

The bathhouse is always busy the day before Nowruz. Everyone wants to be clean for the new year! As three boys enjoy their day at the bathhouse with their fathers, they hear a strange sound and decide to investigate. There's a big mess, and they hear the sound of someone--or something--large splashing in the baths. What could it be? An unruly guest? A four-legged intruder? Or perhaps...a monster?
