Can anyone recommend a book for a 5 year old who has monsters under her bed?

Maggie and the Monster. Here. Best book ever for dealing with strange monsters and I think I could still recite it by heart.

Horatio happened!!! It was dd's favourite- there is a thing but it is wonderful and good so turns the fear round?

Mess Monsters is a fun (non scary) book on that topic

it isn't a book but we had a similar problem a couple of years ago with one of our daughters so we did special fairy magic. Grandma and DD went off upstairs with a toy wand and did a special little fairy magic thing of filling under the bed with love, happiness and sparkles - or something like that, I left them to it. never had a problem after that.
