Denson W. Jones, Sr. Delivers a Message About Responsibility and Respect in “The Monsters Under My Bed”

Author Denson W. Jones, Sr. brings a unique blend of imagination and life lessons in his heartwarming children’s book, “The Monster Under My Bed.” In this fun yet insightful story, Jones explores themes of responsibility, respect, and the consequences of one’s actions through the eyes of a mischievous boy who refuses to believe in monsters.

In the story, the protagonist is a young boy who stubbornly denies the existence of monsters under his bed, despite warnings from his father and grandfather. The family imparts a timeless lesson that monsters grow under the beds of “bad boys” unless they make amends for their wrongdoings and show kindness. As the boy navigates the consequences of his actions, he learns the value of doing what’s right, respecting others, and following the guidance of those who care about him.

Jones, who draws from his own life experiences, crafted this story to emphasize important life principles. “I want children to understand that every action has a reaction… I also hope to teach children the importance of staying in school, showing respect for elders, and praising God,” says Jones.

Born in Joliet, Illinois, Jones grew up surrounded by the hardworking values of his family. He played sports, studied hard, and later joined the military. Afterward, he pursued a career in the medical field, becoming a Medical Assistant, X-ray Technician, and CNA. Jones moved to Oklahoma to be closer to his grandchildren and to further his education. His journey led him to write novels, fairytales, and inspirational books, sharing valuable life lessons through storytelling.

“The Monster Under My Bed” is not just a bedtime story, but a tool for parents and educators to instill values like love, respect, and the importance of making thoughtful choices. Jones’ vivid storytelling and engaging characters remind young readers of the importance of respecting their parents, grandparents, and peers, while also finding humor and joy in their imaginations.

Jones’ desire to share meaningful lessons through storytelling is evident in “The Monster Under My Bed,” making it an essential read for children and their families. Available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other major online bookstore retailers, children will learn valuable lessons about life, responsibility, and love—all while enjoying an adventure they won’t forget.
