A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness is about 13 year old Conor who is visited by a monster every night at 12:07. But the monster isn't the monster from the reoccurring nightmare: the nightmare with the darkness and the fear. Conor could feel the fear just thinking about it. The monster is an ancient creature made from the yew tree in the cemetery that he can see from his window. The monster comes because Conor unknowingly has called it. It comes to tell him three stories, and Conor must tell it a fourth, but not just any old fairytale story. Conor must tell the hardest thing of all: the truth. The truth lies inside the nightmare he's told no one of, not his mom, grandma, or even his dad.

The monster has come to help Conor face this truth. Yet, stubborn Conor must learn the hard way. A Monster Calls is told in third person omniscient and is a story come to life with wonderful art and literature.
