Monster Launch MONSTER Giveaway

Updated: Oct 26, 2023

Hello friends! Can you believe we’re well into October?? And do you know that what that means??? It is officially LAUNCH MONTH for my debut picture book, THE MONSTER ABOVE THE BED. Written by me, illustrated by the incomparable Steph Lew, this book is one of many layers. With a fun twist on a classic fear, Blossom will help you find out what the monsters under our beds think of US! You’ll see layers of courage, friendship, judgments/othering, and more. I hope this book brings joy to young readers everywhere!




Now… in the spirit of Launch Month, I am offering a MONSTERLY HUGE GIVEAWAY!





One grand prize winner will be able to CHOOSE between:

  • Mini PB Mentorship with Kailei Pew: two (1.5 hour each) zoom calls to discuss anything and everything publishing PLUS three rounds of extensive revision on one PB manuscript PLUS work on pitches and queries

  • Virtual full day author visit. A school may choose up to four presentations plus a “lunch with an author” to be given virtually.

  • In person full day author visit (available only in the Phoenix, Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, Los Angeles, and San Diego area). Schools may choose up to four presentations plus a “lunch with an author” in one full day, in person visit.


Two additional winners will receive signed copies of THE MONSTER ABOVE THE BED with stickers and bookmarks.


Two ADDITIONAL winners will receive a 20 min AMA phone call OR virtual classroom reading with Kailei.


That means 5 total prize winners!
